Craig Richards, Just got my copy of Maximum PC and it covers 10 Megapixel cameras and shows some interesting features of each one. The pick of the bunch was the new Kodak DC260 that has a lot of good stuff going for it, including a USB interface that allows for you to download your photos to a PC or (in the future) to a USB Clik! drive at 10 times the speed of doing it via a serial cable... It was the only one to have this feature, but may tell us what other digital cameras will have in their feature pack next year. Having a fast way to download what you have just taken will be a definite plus for the consumer. We know that Kodak was one of the original supporters of the Clik! idea, but certainly may not the the first OEM (that would seem to be one of the Japanese or Korean camera makers). But with USB coming up next year, Kodak may well continue to support this new format. BTW the new Kodak "brownie" will even have an external flash sync which is a big improvement. The res. is 1,536 x 1024 and the camera will have 8 MB which will hold 14 high res mode pictures. But this only shows the need to have something like the external Clik! to drop your exposures to at USB speeds and get on to taking more pictures.

Just my take on this... Time will tell. Mel
