[thelist] digital camera shopping

[Scott Dexter]

I've been reading much about the Olympus D-360L --a CNET editor's choice,
btw-- looks like I might head in this direction. Aardie, I've seen the pics
from your bro (but I seem to have missed the discourse on choosing a
camera), so I think I'm sold. 

Found it for US$229, gonna go ask Santa if she wants to deliver it early =)

It still uses a serial cable to d/l pics, but a co-worker mentioned he
bought a 64MB memory card for his Nikon and it came with a USB cradle to d/l
direct from the card. Pretty slick... just spent an extra 45 seconds and
Olympus makes a solo SmartMedia-USB cradle accessory --US$57....

thanks kids--
