If this is the "Snappy" that has been highly advertised in the trades, I am afraid it is not a digital camera, although it can be used for getting digitized images. It is a frame capture device (similar to the traditional frame capture boards though it is external and uses the parallel port). It can be placed between a video camera, VCR, etc. and the computer to capture a single frame from a videotape for use in computerized applications (e.g., presentation graphics). It is very useful and created a new price break (although the cheapest I have seen it is c. $179) but is NOT a camera. The cheapest digital camera with half-way decent image I have seen is the Kodak which has recently had its price dropped significantly to c. $699.
