Default Digital Cameras (Again)

I have about decided on a digital camera. I like the idea of the Kodak Easy Share Dock for various reasons. I have picked the 3.1 Megapixle DX3900. Does anyone have any experience with this camera or one like it?
One feature that I require is the zoom capability. Not all of my pictures are PT related (I know, I know ) Some pictures will be of Hot Air balloons, frequently in the distance.

Thanks for the help.

For the price, don't think you can beat Kodak or HP. If you want fast answers to your questions, I hang out in these forum(s), usually in Canon though, I'm a G-2 owner... (on the right, halfway down the page, forums, and pick your camera manufacturer):

Ok, Mr. Smart guy....If they are not Hot Air, what are they?

Nice Pics...hmmmm..oh...lol...forgot to mention that many people are taking advantage of MSN rebate, Ebates, plus AMEX Blue price matching to Regency Camera prices to bring the price of a G-2 or similarly priced camera down to a final cost of ~$400-500, which is what your Kodak lists for.

You're welcome...you might find yourself getting lost visiting all the photo albums and seeing which camera settings people use. Good people and information there (no flames either...lol).
