Simply put, you can't really get that feature anymore unless you do it in a software utility like photoshop. In film cameras, date backs would expose light the film in the form of date and time so it was literally burned into the negative image.

As the digital file is marked by a date and time when it's saved, the use of a date stamp feature in digital cameras has lost popularity amongst camera manufacturers as a feature. Sorry, but the AS710A's postcard feature may be the best you can do unless you're willing to add the date/time after the fact.

Check out MAGTIME - http://www.filedudes.com/MagiTime-download-43977.html it's an application which adds date/time to the picture. But beware, once you do it, it can't be undone.
