Digital camera

Hi! I'd like to buy a digital camera and be able to use it with my HP OmniBook XE3 with debian. What _low_ price camrea do you suggest? I'd prefer CompactFlash storage, and it would be the best if it would also work with USB. I was thinking about these cameras so far: Canon A10 HP PhotoSmart 318

RE: Digital camera

I LOVE my canon camera, and the A10 is better than mine. I'd highly suggest the PC Card CF reader. I think I paid $17 for mine, and it's about as fast as my hard drive. Now, that's not with gPhoto or anything like that, but all you want is to get the photos on your omnibook no? -g -Original
