    \ I don't recommend buying non-oem batteries from China on eBay.

    Any reason why not? I bought 2 non-oem batteries for my canon years ago and they work/worked like a charm

    Yes - the video has been choppy for me although I have seen other people's video's posted online with this camera and they look great - just wondering if it was just me?
    I used the free 4GB SD card that came with this deal and I set the Video to HD and the quality is just unbelievable for the price I paid. No choppiness at all. Picture quality is at par with the Canon A590IS that my daughter has. I'm actually thinking of CLing the 590.

    They should be fine, I'm 95% certain the OEM batteries and charger are made in China anyway. Got my charger and battery shipped from China for $13.50 USD, pretty hard to beat.

    Is your flash card fast enough?
    I'm hoping this is exactly the issue. The 4GB memory included was shipped separate from the camera and while it should have been delivered yesterday the UPS tracking is still showing 'out for delivery' so I don't know what's going on with it. Being anxious to try out the new cam I put an older card in not knowing if it would make a difference. At this point I will bank on that being the problem since so many other users are so impressed with the video. Thanks for the responses.

    Heads up to those doing the Office Max deal (like me!) - you can get 3-5% cashback from Live... I know it's not much, but at least it'll help a little with the tax

    My camera arrived DOA... not a damn thing happens when I press the power button or any other button for that matter.
    I tried the included battery and even bought a lithium battery at Walgreens, nothing...

    Hopefully "Best" Buy won't give me any trouble exchanging it...

    Dear Mr. Kodak:

    Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. I'd bet that there is a high percentage of defective cameras in this batch. That's why they're on sale at a deep discount.
    YUP!!! (see above)
