glc mentioned in another thread a Kodak DC3200 1.0MP w/2X zoom camera for $80 with a 1 year warrant refurb at Compgeeks, thats the cheapest I would go for any sort of good quality.

Yeah, and how time flies - I remember when the Kodak DC210 came out and it cost $800 - look at the specs, they are no better than the DC3200. In fact, I believe the DC3200 was the exact replacement for the DC210. Note that it offloads through a serial cable which is SLOW and will kill your batteries, so if you buy one, buy a CF card and USB CF card reader.

The Kodak DC3200 has no optical zoom (only digital), while the DC210 and 210 plus have a 2x optical zoom.

59 bucks for a DC3200 can't be beat - it's actually a nice little camera in spite of no optical zoom.
