"Unfortunately, in their efforts to keep costs down, RCA didn't include a rechargeable battery (etc)"

This writeup makes it sound like this camera comes out of the thin blue sky! It's part of a series which has been AA-only from the start (and mentioned quite a bit here on Engadget). And that's a good thing :) 2 hours of rechargeable AA goodness is just about right at the moment; the sweet spot for SD cards right now seems to be at the 2GB point -- it's safe to predict that 4GB cards will get more attractive, of course, 2GB + 2AAs works well, especially if this camera uses space at the same rate as its predecessors (the half-gig version is half an hour, the full gig an hour); I'm thinking about one of these for my niece's next birthday.

My big question is whether this model incorporates the swing-out USB "cable" (appendage is a better word perhaps) -- very handy.

(AA batteries rule! :))
