Summary: Best 5 Megapixel Value
Review: After reading the Wall St. Journal review of the Gateway DC-T50 I decided to give it a shot. The photo quality is fabulous, and this is the first high quality digital camera I've owned that is small enough to carry with me most of the time. I strongly recommend picking up a larger memory card--128MB is plenty for me (it stores about 100 full resolution images). Battery life is much better than my previous Olympus camera with rechargeable AA's. 8x10 prints have tremendous detail--you can't tell that they're from a digital camera.

Review: First time using a digital camera and it was a success ! Without reading the manual, was able to go from battery charging > printing out photos. Great picture clarity, features are simple to figure out and portability is great. I recommend this to first-timers.

Summary: From concern to delight
Review: Got the Gateway DC-T50 this week and have been VERY happy with it. Was ready to cancel my order at first after reading one very negative review; but camera performs exactly as advertised. Excellent photos with no problems so far. Very versatile and will take some time to completely master. Camera seems to be identical to Toshiba PDR-5300

Summary: please look at other options before you buy this camera
Review: I am fed up with this camera. My parents bought it for me because i have a Gateway computer and they wanted to make sure that my digital camera would be compatible with my computer.
I'll just make this short and sweet.
1 : McGyver couldn't figure out how to turn this camera on.
2 : Expect to miss a lot of potentially great shots, because the start up screen stays on unnecessarily long.
3 : Expect blurry shots for the first 2 weeks of using it.
4 : If you buy a large memory card, you computer will start freaking out whenever you plug the USB into it.
5 : If you plug it into a new G5, your pictures may get erased.
6 : Customer Service at Gateway won't help.
Just get something else. It will save you from so much frustration and anger in the long run.

Summary: Not an expert, but great pictures
Review: I am not a photographer, and this is the highest pixel count camera I have ever had. The pictures look pretty good to me, and it seems simple to use and it fits in my pocket. I have not had the 'protected card' error.

Summary: Horrible waste of money
Review: I am now on my third camera. Each one has had the same problem. I keep getting an error message stating "Protected card" (when the care is not protected). It is sporadic and makes the camera virtually unusuable. The message goes away after a while all by itself -- usually after the photo opportunity has passed.Gateway has no suggestions on what the problem is. Tech support just sends a new camera and it has the same problem. This is truly disgusting. I am now trying to get get my money back. I have wasted a bunch of money and lots of time. Also, I wanted the camera to use in my work and now I have to borrow someone else's camera to bring along as a backup in case this one decides not to work, which is often.

Summary: No Problems At All In The Past Year
Review: I bought this camera about a year ago direct from Gateway. I have never once had any issue with the camera... No memory card error, no lens motor malfunction... and all of my pictures have turned out excellent.

Summary: Memory card error
Review: I did not read the reviews here until after I had ordered the camera. Since I had already requested the camera I thought I would give it a chance. I was very disapointed to get the "memory card error" after only 1 hour of using the camera. It occured after taking a picture, and that picture was lost. It would work again after turning the camera on and off a few times, but the problem kept recurring. Who wants to put up with that with a new camera? I expected a lot more from Gateway, even though they did not make the camera, there name is on it. I emailed them to see if there was a software update to fix the problem. There response: "If you did not purchase the item from Gateway, please contact the manufacturer for further assistance. I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.
However, please note that the Protected card error can be resolved by formatting the SD card. The steps for formatting the SD card changes depending on the model of the card." First of all I did format the SD card, and if it needed reformating when a computer was not around to download the pics to, they would all be erased. And second The name on the camera is Gateway. Although I have read who really makes the camera, the email did not bother to tell me who the manufacturer was. The only good thing about all of this is that I bought the camera from Amazon.com. They are sending UPS to my house to pick up the camera for free and refunding my money. I will buy my next one on Amazon.com -- probably an HP Photosmart R707 5.1MP Digital Camera.
