You can buy them at lots of big US electronics stores, try Frys on Market St. Here is an Amazon link for the one I have, its lighter and thiner than the standard IBM power supply. http://www.amazon.com/Kensington-33197-Adapter-Notebook-Computers/dp/B0007W1K8M/sr=8-1/qid=1172173664/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/103-9934911-0164619?ie=UTF8&s=electronics Make sure you get the tips you need though, Kensingtons website had the one for my Treo out of stock for months.

I'm pretty unimpressed with the E18 error though. I shall be recommending people away from Canon compacts. In a way, I can understand what you say about the Memory Stick. But I came to the realisation recently that I hardly ever take the memory card out of my camera. Once it's big enough to hold all I need before I get to a PC, that's enough. That's a typical situation for me, and with a bit of judicious pruning of the obvious duds on the camera, I don't have a problem. Plus my read-it-all USB card reader at home reads Memory Sticks, and memory is a cheap part of the whole package (a 1GB Memory Stick was $40). Yeah, like I say, I shall probably still buy the 400D.

I've been happy with my 350D but appreciate your frustration both over the Powershot, and the warranty for the 400D. Personally, I avoid Sony due to the proprietary MemoryStick technology. It just seems too limiting to me. I'd rather be able to reuse my storage in another camera or device if I chose to do so. Fair points about Canon.
