I beleive there exists Kodak cameras with the same resolution,
and from what I heard they weren't awfully expensive either.

I borrowed a CompactFlash 4M card from a friend of mine, together
with a PCMCIA "docking card" (he bought a new 32M card and it came
with a new "docking card"), and tried it with a GENERIC kernel from
Nov 21, but "no go" -- from what I remember the PCMCIA code said
that the card never became ready, and it just hung if I had the
PCMCIA card plugged in when I booted.  I've not retried with more
recent code.
