Getting increasingly annoyed

I used to 'like" this camera but I'm starting to get increasingly annoyed with it. For starters, I seem to be taking way too many blurred pictures. Although the picture review shows the picture nice and crisp, once it's transferred onto your computer, it's completely blurred. The claim of standard AA batteries is a crock! I tried Duracell and other brands without any luck whatsoever. At first I thought it was my wife who took the blurred pictures until i started noticing an increase in mine as well. I'm not a novice photographer and generally quite good at it, but lately I either suck or this camera sucks...I prefer to think the camera sucks! LOL
