I finally bought myself a digital compact camera, and I ended up picking a Canon Ixus 430 from the store. This model is also known as PowerShot S410 in the Americas.
The camera itself is stylish and small, and it is easy to take pictures with it. The image quality is OK, but not a sharp as my film SLR from the 1970s.
But for 370 €, I think this is a nice camera that is easy to keep with all the time. I'm saving my pennies for a digital SLR, for better control and image quality, however.

Go and pick the issue from your local newsstand.
Last Friday I had the chance to throw a DJ gig at Tekla's summer party here in Helsinki.
I rented the PA speakers from DSC like I've done in the past, and it worked well.
They borrowed me their new Omnitronic speakers, the 1000W TMX-1530 model.
Nice weather was also with us, the party was really a joy.

Go check it out.
There are more beauty contents in this world I can even imagine. But, I won't complain.
The latest that caught media attention is the Miss Universe 2004 competition, where Jennifer Hawkins (Miss Australia) got the top nomination.
