Someone stop me before I find my woot password... FREE CAMERA CASE included... :) That zoom is cheap & handy when you need it. Decent reviews at Woot and various other sites. Is this Kodak's last hurrah?

    Sometimes it pays to wait. Next level down refurb camera for $85, 43% less! 14MP, 21x optical zoom. At this rate, these things will soon be free with your paid subscription to Sports Illustrated. Oops, I just dated myself with that last comment.

    IMHO Kodak digital cameras are under-appreciated. My only complaint is that they seem to have been designed specifically for expensive disposable lithium batteries. It's the old "give away the razor and charge for the blades" paradigm that has more recently seen great success in inkjet printers.

    FWIW, rechargeable NiZn cells have been the salvation of Kodak cameras for me - but Powerex NiZn chargers are dreck, so I made my own charger, which is of course Propeller-based.
