Thanks for all your ideas - there were quite a few on the list that I
hadn't considered.

One last question - most of the reviews of the Dimage Z5 seem to say
that the picture quality is "OK" - does anyone have any thoughts on
this? I tend to get too caught up in some of the picture quality issues
of reviews without really having a good sense of how it compares to
what I have now (the Canon Powershot S110 - a 2.1 megapixel/2x optical
zoom/compact camera).

Thanks again!

Michael
