Glad to hear everything is still going well!
BTW - I got fed up with rechargables in my digital camera and switched to Lithium batteries. They last an AMAZINGLY long time. (MORE pics of Coda and Heidi! :D ) Plus, all batteries can be recycled - here are some depots in S'toon.

Even the ones that say rechargable batteries may very well take the other kind too...so ask. :)
