    The A330 price I found on pricerunner was about £95, which is probably what you would have to pay to get it repaired.
    So I'd probably use this as an excuse to upgrade as you can get a lot more pixels per buck now.

    Fuji will give you a FOC estimate on your camera I have found.

    You may wish to give it a whirl.

    That gum you like is coming back in style.
  • Not a fuji, but my in laws had a number of issues recently with2 digicams. An olympus which got mauled by a dog and a kyocera which just stopped...

    Both would have been a minimum of £80 to fix. It seems that £80's the cost of opening it up and having a bit of a rootle around. So £15 extra for a brand new one seems cheap...

    BTW my in laws did just what penryhn said and upgraded to a shiny new 6MP wonder...
