I wonder how long it will be before the 626 Instamatic Digital hits the streets... then the 110 and then the Disk Digital. LOL Oh wait  they already have.

Yes they have... ever seen a Sony Mavica? Shoots straight to a 3.5 floppy and surprisingly good quality for a 640x480 jpg.

i used to use a sony mavica as my work camera. surprisingly good.i remember shooting a wedding....i ended up with pockets full of floppy disks.
but for what it was ...it was a very good quality camera.
i have to dig out a shot i took of a Spur winged plover that was swooping me...coz i was about to  step on their eggs.....watch this space....

Those have a cult following. Look at the ebay and goodwill auction sight and you will see that they go for outrageous amounts.

The Oly E-620 is also a really nice camera, with decent kit lenses and a sensible price (as sensible as any DSLR is anyway).  The best part of the E series though are the lenses - the 14-54 and 12-60 are just lovely (as is the 50-200).

Still, if you've got a bit of Pentax mount gear, the Pentax may make more sense.  Don't rule out the Samsung K20D clone though, which at least over here can be had for a lot less than the Pentax.
