Canon SD800IS?

I'm looking to pick up a Canon SD800IS.

It's looks like a fantastic camera from the reviews I've read and David Pogue rates it as his number 1 for a small camera.

Anyone got any ideas where I might pick one up?

I've tried Mixmania and expansys and neither of them have the camera at the moment.

You're looking for the wrong camera, in Europe the SD800 is called the IXUS 850

Expansys here.

Thanks thehomeofDob.

Found it slightly cheaper on Pixmania: http://www.pixmania.com/ie/uk/400677/art/canon/digital-ixus-850-is.html

Is there a list of what a camera is called in the US v UK/Europe?

I have this camera, the Canon IXUS 850.
Its a fantastic little number, very compact and takes great shots.
The image stabiliser is great, as is the face recognition and the wide angle lens.
Well worth the price. I got mine from komplett last October.
Any questions, just ask.

Generally, I would just Google the US name with the word IXUS, well for this range of ELPHS anyway.

E.G. "canon SD800 ixus"
