I just got my Canon Powershot SD950IS with a phatty 12.1 megapixel sensor and like the smart person I am, I forgot my 4gig memory card at my apartment.  No biggie since the last 2 cameras I got from Canon also had a memory card in it.  I figured nothing big or fancy but it should give me a few shots before I get to run home like a good little boy and pop in the bigger card.

At 12.1 mp, it looks like each photo will be about 3.5mb.  That is at max, 9 photos.  Wow.  I can get a 4 gig card now for like 20 bucks, how much more would it have cost to put a 128 chip in it or heck, 256.

I do however wonder if this will charge via USB.  It so, best camera ever.

    My wife and I recently bought a Canon camera on clearance, opened up the box and found an SD card with a big 16 on it. Naturally I haven't seen an SD card smaller than 512 MB in a very very long time so naturally my first thought was holy shit a 16 Gig SD card in the box?!? I came to my senses shortly thereafter.
