Do someone know anyone who can make a driver for this camera if he gets it =

m=20
photo's
o *no* CF card
o a camera bag
o USB cable
o some docs

Some information about using this camera under win2k/win xp:
o only english interface
o difficult interface

running on the computer of my grandmum)
o MP3 not tested
o problems under win2k when the camera is conected and you want to power do=
wn=20
the computer

I already *tried* to contact Samsung to ask them to release the specs, but=
=20
their e-mailsystem seems to be very badly organized: http://users.telenet.b=

What I want from the person that gets my camera:
o better (or very good! ;)) support under Linux than under MS Windows:=20
especially if the webcam and digital camera functionalities are supported=20
good under Linux this will be in combination with localized, more user=20
friendly interfaces under Linux a good reason for my grandmum (and maybe=20
other people too) to start using KDE/Linux (she was already enthousiastic=20
about Knoppix) :D.
