Yeah, I know. That's why I also have a Canon Digital Rebel ;)
The DSC-T1 is to keep it in my pocket and take it everywhere. I usually
have My notebook so it's not practical to carry the SLR camera.
BTW: I prefer to not use flash at all. With the Digital Rebel you can do
that. Obviously, the colors are shifted to orange, but preciselly that
gives a nice touch to the pictures. I wanted to do the same with the
DSC-T1 but it's impossible. You have to use the flash :(

Yup, I agree with you. I've bought a 100000000 in one adapter for less
than that (including S&H) on ebay. And as my notebook is Sony, it comes
with a Memory Stick reader.
