While I'm no fan of digicams the news of Casio's withdrawal from the market make me (fondly) remember the state of the bazaar in, oh say, 2003 when I was choosing my first digital camera, and in the first few years after that. The compacts mostly sucked, of course, even by that time's standards, but there was a sense of diversity and rapid evolution. It was at times mildly entertaining to watch, even though since 2006 I've been a user of DSLR camera (mostly happy, at times pissed off).
