Oh Fuji, what have you done???
Thrown a spanner in my works, that’s for sure *sigh*
I was almost settled on the S5600 over the S5700 when I found that there was a brand new S5XXX camera just released – the Fujifilm Finepix S5800 which is SOOOO tempting! It’s supposed to be available from October 2007 but the first ones are now appearing on Ebay and a seller has it for sale on Amazon as well.
It’s around the £150 mark at the moment but I’m waiting to see what price it will be from Amazon itself a/. because it will be post free and b/. I do value Amazon’s customer service. I bought an Archos Gmini MP3 player last year and it went wrong within a week – I was able to print out a personalised returns label from the Amazon site, send the faulty player back and subsequently received a brand new one in less than ten days.
So, not surprisingly, I’ve put my new camera plans on hold for a little while so I can save up the extra cash to get the S5800 
Oh crumbs decisions, decisions! It’s a hard one to call.
P.S hope you had a nice birthday!

Thanks, Wanda
I’ve decided to save up for the S5800 – it makes more sense to get that rather than the S5700 which is only about twenty or thirty pounds more expensive.
I had a lovely birthday, thanks
Worked hard all morning, had a quiet afternoon, went out for a scrumptious meal in the evening with hubby. Don’t feel any different at 50 than I did at 49 though!
