I'm about to experience that all over again - Janis is due in 2 weeks... :-)

Thanks - luckily don't use flash all that much, and probably will use my wife's 
new Stylus Epic more indoors now.

ps: It's her birthday today, but I couldn't wait to try her new Stylus Epic, so 
I had her open it first thing this morning! :-) 
She is thrilled with it, and marvelled at the small size. I'll never understand 
the big deal with small APS cameras - I wouldn't want it any smaller. Besides, 
a friend paid nearly double for a Canon APS camera and is NOT happy with it - 
14 rolls of lousy photos from a vacation.
