(...) This is a pretty high price for a digicam of this spec. The high street is NOT usually a good place to look. Though I notice you said 'penny under a ton', then said it was £199.99, Did you mean £99.99, which would be more reasonable. What (...) (24 years ago, 5-Oct-00, to lugnet.loc.uk)

(...) I bought one of those in a package with a HP printer (which usually goes for £100) from Jungle for £245, and am very happy with both. Being a camera novice, it has taken me a bit of time to learn how to use it effectively, and as a result some (...) (24 years ago, 9-Oct-00, to lugnet.loc.uk)
