You mean you didn't get yours?

(Seriously though, I once saw the "component
stereo" you got by signing up
for Sport's Illustrated at a garage sale. It was an AM/FM radio with two
speakers about the 1/3 size of a disposable camera.)
To keep this slightly on topic, a bloke at the user group once brought a
miniature pong console (the size of two cigarette packs, perhaps) which was
given away when signing up for a comic book.
Regarding cheap digital cameras, they are cheap because
they suck. I
knuckled under and got a "real" Digicam (the Olympus C-3030Z) to replace my
nearly on-topic Minolta Dimage V) and I must say, the difference is
remarkable (they both cost about the same, and the Olympus is cheaper in
inflation adjusted dollars)
I wouldn't want to risk ending up without media in a remote village in a
foreign land, which is likely if one is bringing a digital camera on the
holidays.
And digital snaps can't be easily shown to others, save for on the lo-res web.
