George,

I know this is a simple question, but when was the last time the batteries were changed? A lithium ion battery can lose its life after a while. Instead of buying a new camera, you can just get a new battery and it should work just fine. Its a lot cheaper than buying a new camera too. You can find them on the Kodak accessory page for your camera. Good luck.

George,

I'm a big fan of Canon cameras. I currently own three. The Canon A570 IS is a great upgrade. The 7.1MP resolution will allow for great photos, even up to 20x30 poster prints at the finest resolution settings, the image stabilization helps in low light and shakey situations, and the manual exposure settings are a favorite of mine for gaining more control over your photographs. It is also withing your budget. I think this would be a great fit for you.
