the way dell's site links to the UPS tracking site is messed up


http://www.ups.com/tracking/tracking.html

go here and manually enter your tracking # ... mines gonna get here on the 9th. dayamn ... wish i got fedex like the rest of all yall.

 

[jplee3]

yuuup... got class at 12-12:50 though. from my previous experiences, Fedex/UPS usually hits my apt complex at around 1-2pm, but maybe i'll get lucky within the next hour

I got mine (S200) today but the LCD screen has 2 dead pixels :|

Does anyone have similar problem with the LCD screen? I don't know if I should return it or not...

Any suggestions to fix the dead pixel will be most welcome! TIA!!!

How u find out if there's 2 deal pixels in your LCD?

btw, what's a good compact flash reader for this gadget?
what's the best case for this gadget?

What's a good printer to print for this gadget?

Yeah it appears something is screwy about the Dell ups tracking link. I entered it manually and it appears to be in ups's hands. I should see it around the 9th also. Hell I waited a month already, whats another week. At least it left Dell. Time to find a good deal on a CF card and maybe a case.

I've heard people questioning whether it is wise to put the camera in your pocket. Keys and change might scratch the casing or lcd. I wonder if I can find a case or something that is small enough so the camera remains pocketable. Maybe I could use something like a sunglasses bag.

wooohoo!

I have the S200 in my hands right now.

Same size as S110, as expected.. much nicer controls/buttons.
I heard somewhere that it's copper colored, but it's not.

Took a few pictures, seems fine.. although I haven't downloaded them to see them on the monitor.

I'm just happy I got it after a month waiting..

[cLiPLiK]

jplee u go to uci?

 

[dArtagnan]

Got back at 2:06, Fedex tried to deliver at 2:04. Argh, I hate them. I was gone for like 20 minutes taking my A+ exam literally. Bleh.

 

[derekb77]

my s200 has arrived. definitely worth the wait. i ordered it 3.29.0.

 

[jplee3]

YES!!! i got it i got it!!! chargin the battery right now but i guess it would be a good idea to check for dead pixels on mine as well... hmmmm - it's very sleek though!!!

cliplik - yea i go to UCI... you??

pecel,



<< What's a good printer to print for this gadget? >>


Epson 820 only $99

printed a very good photo output

 

[iambiotech]

I'd stay away from inkjets. The colors tend to fade with time, and they're not as good as dye sublimation. That being said, there are some dye sublimation printers out there, but the cost per page makes it more economical to use snapfish or another service for prints. So, if you want prints, maybe just get an inkjet and job-out the ones you really like.

 

[pillage2001]

The camera is SO SMALL!! :Q

 

[S00NBAEK]

pecel,

Using the empty CF card, set the camera to "view" mode (the blue rectangle with the "play" triangle inside) and the LCD will display white letters "No Image." on a black screen. I have 2 green dots (dead or stuck pixels).

... Besides the dead pixels, it seems little smaller (thinner) and lighter than S110.

 

[ivanov]

got it!! loving it!!! damn the S200 sure is small and sleek... charging my battery now, can't wait to test it... was running out of the house to go to class, saw the fedex truck a block away, decided to wait for it... made me late for class for 5mins, but what the heck... well worth the wait!!

 

[jinduy]

DAMNIT! i freaking missed the shipping by 15 minutes( i was at school) u guys know if i can pick it up today?

 

[zboy]

Got my S200, loves it. It's about the same size as S110, little darker, same sleek stainless steel body, stylish looks. However, it is not as handsome as S110. I think this is due to the big round button on the backside. But I promise to you that you need it.Much better flashlight, button design and manual contorl. Over all, it is definately a better camera than my OLD S110.

BTW, there is one dead pixel in my LCD too. (red) Maybe thatis why canon delay the shipping.
