Sounds like I'm getting the money for my broken camera back!!
Just got an email from amazon. They said my camera can't be fixed, and they will refund the full purchase price; 325 Euro. From this amount, I can buy a new camera. The Canon Powershot S2 (the one I had) is no longer avaible, but the S3 is now down to 350 Euro at amazon, so that would be a great option.
Please keep your fingers crossed that I will soon get my money back, so that I'm able to get the new cam! I miss taking photos of my girls! :D
