I thought the whole point of digital cameras was the re-usable memory card.

This is just silly!

Why throw away 460 Rupees?

What's the resolution of this? my first digital camera was 1 megapixel and was crap. I exchanged it and bought a 4.2 megapixel camera which gives proper photographic quality pictures.

It doesn't say anything about price above. Presumably you are referring to the link - which I did not bother to follow.

If it is only 19.99 Rupees then the camera costs about 40 cents or 22 pence.

:blink: That can't be right surely??
