I'd order mine from Adorama or Amazon. It helps me keep adding to this site when you get yours from this link, too.

Introduction top
The SD890 was announced on 12 March 2008. It's been available since April 2008 at about $359.
It stands out because it's tiny enough for a pocket, and has a 5x optical zoom lens.

Recommendations top
If this fits your budget, just get it. I love my SD700, which is the crummier version from 2006 for which I paid over $400.
If you have less budget, get the SD770 instead. I'd be happy with either camera for many years to come. Just get it.
