Mini Keychain Camera $4.99 with Free Shipping

The mini-keychain-camera deal is back. Last time I posted about this one, it sold out pretty quickly, but buy.com must have gotten some fresh stock. They're selling the Magnavox Keychain Digital Camera DigiCam (assorted colors) for $4.99, and there's free budget shipping too. The camera's retail is $29.99 so it's 83% off that; I'd hazard a guess that if you find something like this at your local photo shop, it would be in the $10-$15 range, so this is a nice little price when you include the free shipping.

Of course, a camera like this isn't meant to be a main camera, but just something to have when you really need to snap a picture and your regular camera just isn't around. It could also be something you could give the kids to play around without worrying about damaging some expensive piece of equipment. The size makes it easy to keep in your pocket.

Here are the specs (from what I read in reviews, it's not compatible with Mac):
- three uses: sill pictures, video, webcam
- captures: 20 pictures at CIF or 81 pictures at QCIF
- CIF Resolution (288X352)
- captures .avi video files
- lens: f/2.8 2.5" CMOS Sensor
- includes easy to use software, USB cable, battery

There's a limit of five per customer. They have an assortment of colors, but you receive a color by random -- you can't select exactly which you want. But at this price, is that a deal-breaker?
