pay a few extra quid and get the older r300,it has a memory card reader on it,useful for digiatl camera's
i have this model,and its great.the ink,albeit un-official costs me £0.79p per cartridge............just wicked
R200= basic printer
R300= as above,but with card reader
R320= as R300, but with screen viewer,(so you can see what photo you want to print when accessed from memory card0

You only replace the color that runs out. In a 2 cart system, the 3 colors are all in one. If one color runs out you loose the colors left in the single cart. More cost effective with the multiple color cart. system.

I have the R320 but I haven't really needed to use the memory card slot or the picture viewr at all. I have a friend who bought the R200 and it works just great for him. So if you're looking for cheaper, with the printing capability as the new models.. then go for the R200. If you have a computer then all you'd have to do is load your photos there and correct what you need to... view from the computer and print. If you have a Fry's Electronics near you, check out their ads. They've been running the R200 for $50 after a mail in rebate. Of course you'll have to pay taxes. Go here, you'll find the latest ads. Too bad you can't order online.

Ok I lied. You can order online through www.outpost.com
I noticed that the Epson R320 is selling for $129.99 after a mail-in rebate. So there you go! Oh by the way, I'm having lots of fun with the cd/dvd printing!

That IS the best deal I've seen out there. They didn't have a rebate when I bought mine. I tried to see if there was a catch about having to buy a camera with it in order to get the rebate. But Nooo...! I thought I had a really good deal with $130 a month ago and that's the final total with shipping included. Good find!

I have a R-200 that I love. Got it at my local Sam's Club, less that $50. Also available here at Wal-Mart about the same. I think the R-200 has been discontinued tho so the 320 would be the way to go..
P.S. Here's a good link for cheap ink:

Huh, can't seem to get the link to work..
Just try abacus.com

The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves...
