The lowest price i've found for the S410 is $325.
Does that sound about right?

Amazon's got it for $308 w/free shipping. Use one of the shopping search engines... bizrate, pricegrabber, cnet shopper, froogle, or mysimon... and you might even find it cheaper.

If I order it through onecall it's $304 with a free 128mb flash card with free shipping. They will also give me a 10% discount on my next purchase.
That is a good camera right "D"?

The Canon S410 gets very good reviews. If you're looking for a small pocket size digicam then it should do the trick for you. Personally, the Elf line has always been too small for my liking... but that's just a personal preference. I'm a big fan of the entire line of Canon cameras... actually I also own a Canon printer and Scanner... I really don't think you can go wrong with any of the Canon cameras. $304 with a free 128mb card and free shipping is a good deal.

tstar,
Also found out that onecall will match the price with any authorized dealer of canon products. Has to be in stock though.
I'll check to see if I can still use my onepass for the freebies that they offer.

Im guessing you want it for your up coming trip? You can probably find some really good deals out there. I like the S500 because of the video plus you can add voice messages to a pic. Blah, blah, blah.
Just remember to get an extra battery. Plus turn off the lcd as much as you can. I used the camera for 3 days without the lcd I took 400 plus pics and video beore I had to change the battery.
Im looking for the small travel printer for the S500. If you run across something let me know.

Cool,
I want to talk to the tech/rep. person at onecall to make sure on this price
matching deal.
I also read about the coach case that it comes in with the leather camera
case.
