The PC Card Adapters work great, Cardbus or not (I have used mine - Smart Media - on Kanga and Powerbook 5300c).
I would buy a snapshot Digital Camera using the following criteria: 1) 2 or 3 Megapixel (good enough for the occasional 8.5x11 print for friends/family and definitely all webpublication purposes) 2) non-proprietary battery (AA or AAA) - this takes care of the running out of power problem and makes the camera useful everywhere in the world (as long as you take some spare batteries). For environmental reasons it is always good to use rechargeables (LiIon) anyways. 3) Compactness/Ruggedness. I have experience with a couple of different Olympus D-Series iterations and they are great in that respect. 4) Zoom (3 times optical is nice). 5) Quicktime Movie ... added bonus and expanding on what you can do to spruce-up your i-Photo show. Yes, a digital camera in this pricerange (up to 300 USD) can not replace traditional film for professional quality prints, but it will work for most applications that the average user has, IMHO. And let me tell you: You save tons of money on prints and it is a blast to be able to view pictures immediately and show them on any TV/Computer while they are still fresh. HTH, YMMV, tobias. -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
