I saw this camera offered at a knockdown price of £70 on Insight UK. 0.8Megapixel and a LCD, at that price I thought its worth a gamble, for a smnapshot camera for the kids.
However after a couple of days use I'm impressed, and won't be letting the kids near it. I takes accurate photos quite capable of producing bright, sharp prints at 5x7inches on my Espon 740. The LCD is a joy to use, and the controls whilst initillay a bit complex now come natutally.
Whilst 1024x786 resolution won't set the world on fire, the lack of investment means I any happy to take it places I won't dream of taking a more expensive camera.
In short I wish I'd bought two, one for me and a second one for the kids. It's just a pity that Insight UK have sold out!

(+) Ultra-compact dimensions, fun automatic tools, good performance for the asking price (-) Cluttered menu layout, camera buttons are scarce, specs are almost identical to the Samsung ES15
