CompGeeks has the Kodak DC290 digital camera on sale for $359.

This 2.1 megapixel (1792x1200, 24-bit color) digital camera features a
zoom lens, built-in flash, 16 MB CompactFlash card (upgradeable), NiMH
battery charger, and both USB and serial cables.  The CCD native image
resolution is 2.3 megapixels.  (It's got all the good stuff!)

This camera works well with OS/2 Warp.  You can get pictures directly to
your OS/2 Warp system using either the serial cable and DCITU software or
a CompactFlash card reader (via a PCMCIA adapter, available separately). 
The DCITU web site also has information on capturing the audio that the
DC290 can record.  USB support may be available in the future.

CompGeeks also has a trio of cheaper digital cameras (640x480) at bargain
basement prices (well under $50), although I've been unable to verify
whether they work with OS/2 Warp.  (These might be fun for a hacker
project.)  For the complete list of digital cameras, visit:
