I Agree with Karen -- the Canon PowerShot series is the best for the price/quailty ratio. I SWEAR by mine!! Pricewatch is also where I went to look for prices for the new camera I will be getting next month.

I actually don't like iPods for a NUMBER of reasons -- for the same price you can get a Creative Zen with more memory and is better worth your money. iPods are all about making money because of the name brand.

Another good place to look for low prices is froogle.com!
