Bottom line: great camera.
My first digital camera was one of the first Canon Elphs (I forget the model), and I loved it. Since then I've tried an Olympus 720SW and a Kodak EasyShare V1253, neither of which are very good in my opinion (the Olympus is slow and takes horrible pictures; the Kodak is a little faster and takes better pictures, but the "HD Video" that they advertise locks up completely after about 10 seconds, the pictures still aren't great, the startup time is slow, and it requires its own connector/cable).
Happily, this new SD890 has me smiling again. Its power-on-to-first-pic time is excellent (not the fastest out there, but plenty fast enough for me), the pictures are great, and the video works as it should. It's just fast, easy to use, and it works as it should (I can't say those things about the Olympus or the Kodak). I'm happy once again to have a camera that I want to carry around and use.
