New P+S Time

I want to replace my Canon Powershot SD900 with something that a) can take pics faster b) is smaller and c) takes better video (I have a camcorder, but I like having a decent recorder in the camera). Whats the opinion on this guy?

HD video? Really?

i remember a while back you asked for advice about something, and just when people were giving advice you posted that you already bought it.

I don't know if movies will be better, but at least they are mpeg4!

Personally, I would hold off and see how the Fuji F200EXR does.
It has a lot of potential.
