Broken things update...

Nice man says they are still waiting on 'bits' and may have to work on Lambert post-weekend. I get the car back for the weekend though. No sport for me this week. Wahh.

Nice lady at Canon offered to repair the S2 for free + parts which reduced the price to acceptable.. barely. Since the diagnosis was not covered by warranty due to excessive particles in the lens mechanism I'm a bit worried about how to store it to prevent future problems what with the camera case clearly being inadequate.
