      Good deal.
      The 10MB is also nice, for a 100$ less.

      Is this worth it? I have the SD750 and may want to upgrade.

      Here's a review #3. Looks pretty nice.

      Looks like Abe's has the black version for $8 more.

      Honestly, though, who's going to be printing 20"+ prints? Save the money, get the 10MP version.

      If you don't need 14.7MP then the SD890 is a good buy since it sports a longer zoom (5x), and as #1 mentioned it'll also save you close to $100.

      A nice camera, you really need only 2 meg, retailer is a bit iffy.

      Read the reviews and get the SD880 instead. You'll get a 3" LCD, a wide angle lens and pics that come out just as good. Ken Brockwell compared it to the SD990 and he still states that the SD880 is his #1 pick no matter the price.
