I have had my eye on the little PowerShot S90 for months.  I think my friends were starting to get tired of me talking about it.  When I got to Hong Kong, I was hoping to get my hands on one.  The weekend it was released, my friend Phil and I walked through camera shops all over Kowloon to find one.  Every shop was sold out of them.  The only place to have one on display was the Canon office in TST and it was at the full MSRP of $3680.  I was willing to wait.

Fast forward a few weeks, my friend Clinton, took me to see his photo store buddy, John, in Mongkok.  We had called ahead to check on availability and a quote.  We asked John to set aside one for me.  John threw in a 8GB card, an extra battery, and a carrying case, all for $3400, a little less he quoted on the phone.

Here are some pictures I have taken so far.  Kids.  Hong Kong.  So far I have very little to complain about the little camera.  It does just about everything I am looking for.
