add your more informed speculation just for fun. Minolta got snuffed by ?? Kyocera (?) Casio has always done the credit card size fetish, since their calculators, so maybe Casio will keep making those cameras (unless cell phones incorporate good optics inexpensively, which I doubt). uhh.. I'm just doing stream of conscious here. Pentax? Panasonic? how long can Leica digis live off their brand name? recent news stories say that Sony intends to "GM" (de-diversify) all of their electronics. sharp appears to have self aborted their digicams. long term....? hp and Kodak becoming the Hotpoint and ford escort/f150 of the camera world. canon and Olympus doing the whole range, Nikon going higher range. Sony doing oddball-status stuff such as record to CD. "Walgreen's" and "Safeway" store brands doing the disposables -----= Posted via Newsfeeds.Com, Uncensored Usenet News =----- http://www.newsfeeds.com - The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! -----== Over 100,000 Newsgroups - 19 Different Servers! =-----
