I've got to decide whether to snatch up a snazzy Sony digital camera or let somebody else grab it.

Does anybody believe (like discussed in Lounge) that Apple's going to release an iPod-like camera, cause if so I'll let this deal go by.

I believe it's certainly possible, but no one knows, so you have a tough decision to make.
I've been thinking about buying a digital camera as well. I spent a good part of this afternoon looking at them. I do a lot of nature photography, but I want something for convenience, where the quality doesn't have to be as good as film, and I've decided to wait until next Monday.

What if this camera used a hard drive like the iPod to record Video and take pictures?

5 Gigs of harddrive beats smartmedia.

Whatever Apple's planning on introducing, waiting til the 7th certainly won't kill you. I say wait it out, and if they don't introduce the iCam, pick up that kick-ass Sony.

Either way, you win.
