I do the same thing. Pop the sd card out of the camera and into my pc and
it looks the same as a usb drive.
If you machine doesnt have a card reader, you can get one for way less than
$30. Seems like the last one I bought (for my wife) was only $19.

Peter,

Some cameras seem to not allow such ease of use. But I am surprised at
the number of people who don't at least try that.

I don't understand why some people insist on using software to upload
their photos.

I simply put the card (SD for both my Nikons, MSPro for pictures taken
with my Sony DV camcorder) in my card reader. Done.

Just my 2 Euro-cents.

I hope you've been happily playing with your Powershot. Sorry to
post
late, but hope it's helpful to someone. I've had two Canon
Powershots
(broke the door that holds the batteries in on the first one with a
badly timed drop), as well as a Kodak point-and-shoot model. I found
the Kodak's operation more intuitive, but now that I've gotten the
hang
of the Canon UI I vastly prefer it.

I can't comment on Canon's software, as I use now use Digicam on
Linux,
but Kodak's photo management software is terrible IMO.


I did buy a Powershot A1000 but I've been off at cub scout camp with
one
of my kids and haven't done much with it yet. Since I was going to be
out
in the elements I took my old flaky Kodak along for this trip. Next
week
I will have lots of photo-opportunities for the new Powershot.

I also haven't checked out the Cannon software yet. The Kodak software
did the job but it seemed to be "dumbed-down" to make it overly easy
for
the below-average consumer to upload their pictures. I've got some
other
options for viewing and manipulating them once they are on the PC.

Thanks to everybody for their suggestions!
