My digital broke and can't afford a SLR right now

should I suck it up and just use my regular 35 mm Canon Rebel or should I buy a cheapy digital? What would you do?

I just got a Canon SD630 on ebay for $160, brand new.... I use it when I don't want to lug around my SLR and it's great.. it takes REALLY nice pictures

I would use the Canon Rebel until I could get one. If you're desperate for digital, they do sell the one time use digitals.

For me, it's not worth spending a few hundred dollars on a digital camera if I planned on spending $400+ on one down the line.

My digital isn't working great anymore so I have been using my 35mm SLR and having the pics developed onto disk. They come out much better than my expensive digital camera. Eventually I will get a digital SLR.

I just spent a load of money on the Canon SD800. I read all the reviews and thought it was going to be so wonderful, but I have been very disappointed with it.

I would stick it out and get the SLR you want. I am probably going to sell this one Ebay and get an SLR too.
