I use an Olympus 360L, which I'm very happy with EXCEPT for the battery
life. If I take pictures with the color LCD on, I swear, I can only get 10
pictures if I'm quick enough to do it in 5 minutes (w/ alkaline AA's). I
don't understand this, especially when the newer Sony camcoders w/ larger
LCDS can get more than an hour out of a tiny 2-AA-sized battery pack. So,
yes, do get the AC adapter, for your downloads to the PC. I bought the USB
Smartmedia card "drive" that I can plug the memory cards into, and they
behave just like another harddrive as far as the PC's concerned.

HTH,

hey ballando
Hey maybe I can help you out for a change :) I use an Olympus 360L
($279.99) and am very pleased with its size and picture output. Check
out www.photoalley.com that is where I bought mine. Whatever camera
you do buy DO get a plug in power supply as mine (and most of them)
do take around 2-3 amps just to run (around $30)! You will need this
powersupply especially when downloading the pics. The 4 double AA
batteries don't even have a chance (brand new standard ones last
around 30 minutes.........
