i need a camera that can be usb powered...
i got the solar powermonkey and i want to limit my use of cords that i need to take

anyone know of a decent, small, digital camera that exists?

As far as I am aware, with the powermonkey explorer, it can power digital cameras but cannot charge digital camera batteries, so unless you want to walk around with the powermonkey dangling off your camera, you're out of luck.

As far as travel cameras go, I'm going to order a Olympus 1030SW for my 15 month backpacking extravaganza: http://www.digicamreview.com/olympus_mju_stylus_1030sw_review.htm

It comes with a compact charger, that's probably your best bet. The 770SW is similar and a little cheaper too.

Hey kjerstan, have you got your camera yet, I have found an article with tips on how to choose a right camera:
