Why So Small?

I bought a digital camera a few months back, a Canon PowerShot A590. While it was not too expensive, I'm still trying to figure out one thing- it came with a mere 32 MB card. This simply doesn't make much sense. If they want to be so cheap about it, they could just leave it out all together. I have a whole box of cards, and the next smallest one it 128 megs, on up to 4 gigs. They should at least include a 256 meg card in my opinion, or just not bother. What a waste, that I now toss this card that I will never use. Does this make sense to anyone? Maybe they should just include a coupon in the box for $5 off a memory card of the user's choosing.

I got a 16MB card with my Panasonic Lumix 6MP camera when I bought it a couple years ago :) I had to chuckle and wonder the same thing as you - why bother. I would much rather have a $5 or $10 off coupon or even a rebate when I bought a SD card of my own.

So much for "going green." Just a total waste of resources. Either give me something I can use, or don't bother and price accordingly.
