One of the
nice features of the Sony, and other similar cameras, is that you can add a
voice notation to the pics, so say you're on your bike, cruising past
something you'd like to photograph "seriously" later on, you can make a
quick snap of the scene and add a comment, such as the location of the
subject, to the pic.

Yes, that is definitely one of the reason I bought the little Optio. Spot
something, take a shot, come back later for more serious exploring with a more
serious camera.
So far I haven't done that, but only had it about a week. However, I have now
taken some candids of Mom in various situations. Snapshots, but it records
her. I will have a record.

Yes, the little cameras make a big difference to getting the shot when
the most important part is having the camera "be there."
But don't underestimate the capabilities of the little p&s digitals,
either. Although they have their limitations (and I can't think of *any*
camera type that does not!) they can actually be used for the serious
exploration of many subjects.
