1st - which would you recommend for a good mid-range photo printer: Canon S900 or Epson Stylus Photo 960? I just bought an Olympus C-5050 Zoom (5 megapixel) and am looking for a suitable printer to go with it.

2nd - anyone know of a successor from Canon for the S900? I just went to BestBuy to purchase one and they were sold out. Furthermore, I was told that they will not be stocking this model any more. The sales guy said that he heard that Canon was coming out with an updated model - but I am skeptical. Anyone know about this? Even if they are coming out with a new model, is there any reason to wait?

Thanks,
Barry
 
Canon's S800 (6color ink tankis a very nice photo printer too. You can get it cheap @ cdw.com for $60usd.(normally it around $100+) I much recomaned canon printer.
Epson's printing speed is way too slow. Epson's print head is had to last a lifetime. Canon's can easily replaced.Same goes for canon's ink.
