Got one before X-mas.  The Canon CP220.  Prints very nice.  Ended up
returning it because it wasn't compatible with my Kodak camera.  The
Kodak printer/dock prints for more like $0.40 per print.  Pricey, but
worth it for family gatherings.  The grandmothers really like taking
the pictures home with them!

$0.29 is for the 1-hour prints.  $0.19 for prints that take a few days.
BTW, the wal-mart site has one big avantage compared to rits/wolf (the
only other site I compared it to) - you can upload a lot of pics at
once via a drag-n-drop embedded control.  Methinks it only works on Windows,
but since I had >100 pics to upload & print, it was worth it to me to
go to a Windows box.  On the Wolf/Ritz site, you have to individually
choose each image to upload.  That would have taken an hour.
