One thing that's kind of cool about digicams like this is that the
manufacturer is kind of assuring a certain level of quality. With an
SLR the user may shoot with filthy sensors and a cheap lens and then
blame the camera for his output. Something like this promises a
certain minimum level of quality that's pretty much better than what
most people are used to achieving with inexpensive equipment. These
Kodaks are retailing for, what, like $500? They'll be selling on yaBe
for $300 by next spring. That's a lot of bang for the buck, IMO.
