Sweet as fuck Giles: thank you. While I'm sending them to you; I'd like them hemmed to 34" as well (and I still need to pay you for hemming my 634s'es)… But I'll PM you when I see your back in ole UK... Thanks!..

That sounds like slubbiness.  PBJ makes some very slubby models.  I have some Samurai S5000VX that are pretty slubby, but I don't think they are anything when compared to PBJ.

@simon626:

I had lunch with a few friends and they all have samurais. Their jeans had a bunch of tiny white spots like in between blue threads and their denim looked very irregular..

Is that what "slubbiness" is? I liked the way they looked. Their jeans were along the 8 month mark. Are PBJ's similar to samurai's in terms of slubbiness?

Oni I think is even slubbier then PBJ..

Oni is. But hey Simon, why dont you ask a certain you know who about Strike Gold? those are as close to samurai slubbyness as i remember when i first got my 710s

Can anyone reco an inexpensive point & shoot that will fit in a shirt pocket?  I'm going to look around but just in case someone knows off of the top…  thanks.

Depends on your budget and how you define 'inexpensive' 

Olympia is usually pretty good at the sub-$250 level. Canon, Nikon, and Lecia can get a little pricey, but all have offerings behind their flagship $400 models.

My wife has the S90 and it's an incredible camera for being a p&s. Loads of my photographing friends recommend it as well. The S95 must be a winner as well.

I've had two Powershots that I've been very happy with. I paid $200 for the first one, which was stolen and $175 for the second one. You can sometimes find them on sale on Amazon

What's the longest delay you guys have experienced due to customs….?

My tw-5310p are stuckkk

3-4 weeks. Apparently they needed me to fax (!) them (read about that on the net)… After I did, they needed to see a proof of payment and they royally fucked me for an extra 211 € in fees...

Good luck.
