Art, I was just at Best Buy this week to buy a digital camera, and I spent a lot of time talking to the guys there about cameras, flash, etc. I found out the following:

- Digital is it. I didn't need them to tell me. The film camera section did not have a single browser. I had to elbow in just to see the digital stuff.

- Kodak is an afterthought, at least there. The only negative I saw for Sandisk was the employees were modestly in favor of Sony products, which I must admit are my favorite consumer electronic products in general. They are also price competitive in dig cameras, whereas they are often at a premium in other areas.

- They are flat out of flash memory cards. All they had were a few 16Mb SmartMedia cards(Sandisk) and one 128Mb CF Sandisk card, which they joked about never having sold.

PS Still looking for an answer to the compatibility between MMC and CF cards.
