Where did you order it from? I ordered one from Pixmania last week but they told me they've been recalled and will be re-released later in the month due to a problem with the USB interface - I hope they do, I'll be buying one before Christmas to replace the Yashica P&S that gets family use, and it'll either be an Optio 330GS (cheap option) or the Canon S30 (dear option) if the 330GS never appears - S30 has lots of manual options but is >100 euro dearer.... Of course, I ordered a 128 meg CF card and a CF reader (so the USB problem wouldn't have affected me anyway) and they are here. Nice card - shame there's no camera to go with it...
