Thanks for the suggestions, and of course I didn't mean to imply any
sort of inferiority of Irish public works ;-), I just know that my
wife, chaperoning a group of high school kids, is not going to want to
mess with recharging a camera, so I'm looking at other options. One
thing I like about
My everyday camera is the unusual hybrid Canon TX1. It's a
cigarette-pack-sized camera that has a 10x optical zoom lens, takes
hi-def video(1280x720) with stereo sound, and can be used as a stereo
(16-bit/44.1) audio-only recorder with surprisingly good fidelity from
the built-in microphones
I received the Canon SD1100 and gave it to my wife today.
Unfortunately, I had not noticed that it has a rechargable battery and
does not take standard batteries. My wife is planning on taking this
camera on a trip to Ireland this summer (a big reason for getting it).

recharge. However,

We're not quite in the dark ages here in Europe you know (well, except
maybe financially ;-) ). I've travelled from here all over the place
with the standard canon chargers and a variety of leads to plug them in
and they work pretty much everywhere.
