Do you think they're going to announce a new pocket camera soon? This huge price drop seems to suggest that something is coming. Any guesses?

It's a limited time offer, so it could be an overstock deal or just a plain-old marketing gimmick. It's a surprisingly large cut, in any event. Glad I hadn't bought one before this.

Which defects are still not resolved after the 1.8 firmware release?

Do you think we will get the same deal in the UK. Doubt it.

Doesn't the VAT render that difficult/costly?

Half price seems to apply in the UK as well.

So much for trying to sell mine for $600 this month.

Pat, you'll most likely still get that amount after the sale ends or when they run out of stock.
