RE: OT: digital camera

	A fellow I work with recommends you get one which uses the compact
flash cards, for transfer to your PC via PCMCIA interface.
USB and 1394 are totally different interfaces, USB is fairly slow, while
1394 runs at 200 MHZ, which leads to the incompatibility.

I am considering a purchase of a digital camera.  I need to know more
information - advantages and disadvantages - that sort of stuff.  I want a
hardware device which is made to be used spedifically with USB (Universal
Serial Bus).  Manual tells me that although IEEE 1394 are similar
technologies, I cannot interchange IEEE1394 connections with USB
connections.  I am looking at a Panasonic Palm Cam PVDC 2090 which requires
IEEEU Data Port.  Neither photo shop nor the computer outlet can tell me if
IEEEU is equivalent to IEEE 1394 or equivalent to USB.  I sure would
appreciate input.  thanks
