Dedicated flash for a P30T

[Mat Maessen]

I just bought a P30T, both as a second camera body, and a camera for 
pseudo-dummies for my girlfriend (full auto mode).
The Vivitar 560D flash unit that's kicking around here claims to be a 
fully dedicated flash for the camera. However, though it seems to work 
that way when the camera's set to apeture-priority, it doesn't seem to 
work in full auto mode.
Can anyone suggest a decent bounce flash that will work properly with 
this camera, even in full auto mode? If I can find a used AF280T, I 
might consider it, but the new ones are too much $$$ to justify.

AFAIK, all P30 bodies cannot do TTL flash.
