Great deal, I emailed Dan about it earlier today.

For n even better deal, get it at NewEgg ($149.99, four cents more...) with a free case and 4gb card, and no tax in NY

Newer generation model is out and I'll bet there will be some deals on it in the coming week.

If it's cheap enough that it's worth the upgrade, I'll file a return-protection claim (and buy the newer one), otherwise, this is a good camera for $150 with a case and card.

Any can't-miss features on the refresh?

Elph 310 has a 3" LCD and 8x optical zoom instead of 5x-a pretty nice upgrade for an ultra-compact camera.

Not worth $50 more, but if the price drops to $180 it would be worth going for the 310 IMHO.

Thanks. Considering the MSRP ($229?), we'll see if it'll come down to $170 (case and card are worth at least $10 to me), $60 off at launch (or even $50) sounds a bit much.

MSRP is $259 according to amazon, so it's already down $60. We'll see what happens.

Since the recession began more and more companies are doing this, they jack up their MSRP and give you a 'bigger discount' while charging you the same (post-discount) price.

Thanks! It definitely wasn't there earlier, and for NYC residents the newegg offer is (arguably) a better deal IMHO.

Btw, you might mention its for the Silver only. (Although about 24 hours ago, this price was for the red one only, which has since changed to silver all day today)
