Regarding the software update: I purchased the Olympus C-4000 zoom today with the Camedia Master 4.0 software enclosed and much to my surprize when I got it home and snapped off a few shots and tried to save them, it wouldn't let me. However a VERY helpful pop-up directed me to the website where I could upgrade at my convenience for $19.95 U.S.+ tax. Needless to say I'm not pleased by this. After $777.47 CDN, the least they could do is give you the damn software that works. I've decided to keep the camera because it's the one I want, but this tatctic of making me pay even more if I want to save images is bull$! Sorry for the rant, I needed to get it off my chest and since the subject was brought up...
