Need help choosing a new digital camera!

I've got a Sony Digital Camara Recorder (DCR-TRV730) It uses 8mm tape to record digital video and has a memory chip for digital pictures. It also records short .mpg movies to the chip. It's advertised at 1,070,000 pixels and has a view finder as well as an lcd display. It connects to the PC via USB port and the memory chip shows up as an additional drive as soon as the camara is plugged in...

Best of both worlds and the newer models are better than ever...

Whichever one you choose, make sure it comes with a rechargable battery pack, not replaceable (AA, AAA and the like) batteries. I haven't seen a digital camera yet that doesn't drain regular batteries like water. My Boss'digital camera won't even turn on when he tries to use the cheaper Costco store brand batteries.

My friend Dan has a good web page about choosing digital cameras:
