This feature-packed camera is a great buy, and perhaps the best compact non-SLR camera you can buy...
I already have a Canon G9, so for me I do not consider the upgrade worth enough. I highly recommend these pocket as they are able to take astonishing shoot (look at my Australia gallery)

Are expensive memory card worth the money?
I am in the process of aquiring a DSLR / P&S (point and shot small camera) and camcorder for my 7 weeks trip to Australia. I've already fixed myself on the followwing model
- Canon EOS 40D (available) or Nikon D300 (wont be available so will have to wait february)
- Canon G9 for P&S, but this model has currently G9 LCD Leak and Purple Pixels issues or a Samsung NV
- Sony camcorder HD 1080i with HDD
Since I never buy anything without analysing carefully all specs, I came across this page from Rob Galbraith
The CF/SD Performance Database is a
regularly-updated compilation of write and read speed test results
designed to aid the serious and professional photographer in selecting
camera storage media for a Canon or Nikon digital SLR.
Write speed test results for each of the
digital SLR models actively being tested, as well as card-to-computer
transfer rates, can be accessed from the popup menu above.
So If you ask yourself if a Sandisk Ultra 2, III or IV is worth the money, you're at the right place!
Attention a LOT of fake card are circulating on ebay!!!! read this for not bein f... Fake Sandisk Card on ebay

Forget about fish eye, this is clearly the future: (below the prototype of MIT, which we may soon see on Instructables / DIY sites)
The device is capable of capturing multi-gigapixel, explorable panoramas with most off-the-shelf digital cameras.
You don't need specialized GigaPan hardware to take your own panoramas. If you have lots of patience, a high-quality digital camera, and a good tripod (or very steady hand!) you can take hundreds or thousands of overlapping, zoomed-in pictures for a gigapixel-scale panorama, then use off-the-shelf stitching software to combine the images into one very high-resolution panorama for upload.
The WEB interface for navigating inside panorama is simply fantastic, the speed is great, as it make use of background downloading, image maps, asynchronous multi-part load and multi-pass refinement images load
GIGAPAN and most popular shots are here (1445 available), Google is sponsoring the program (may we soon see huge panorama in Google Earth????)
The commercial version will be available here for $275
