>>>I'm surprised SNE didn't can the project and instead form an alliance with IOM for the CLIK OEM'd in Digcams<<<

Dr. Sheila... I've been researching and shopping for Digtial cameras for the last few weeks... my honest opinion is that CLIK! missed the boat with digcams... Not one one of the 10 - 12 major mfg.s of Digicams even mentions CLIK! although there are numerous... "Buy this camera get CLIK! Free!!!!..." type offers being offered... no one is talking about CLIK! bulit in... in any way shape or form... I know you mention some Korean outfit set to offer CLIK! built in but none of the majors are even mentioning it... i.e. CLIK! built in... instead comapct flash, smart cards... are offered with virtually every camera on the market... capacity with these cards is now at acceptable levels (48 mb, 96 mb)and prices continue to drop... reliability is not an issue... all you need is a small, inexpensive card reader, etc... Bottom line I do not see CLIK! seriously competing in the digicam market... and have yet to see it appear in any other platforms... Oh and SNE has the memory stick which I think pretty much eliminates the need for CLIK!

Good Luck...

PS I've decided on the Kodak DC265 with 16 mb flashcard included... I will purchase a couple of 48 mb cards to cover all my temporary storeage needs....
