If it never shows up at least you will find that the prices of quality cameras have come down considerably in 2 yrs.
PC world (no, not affiliated, but got good bargains there this weekend during their sale) have 10 megalpixel cameras for E130 or 8 mgp for E119 or even an 8mgp digital for E89!
The reason I had to fork out (again!) is that I broke the LCD screen on my 2 yr old camera and was told in a camera shop that it would cost E150 'for them to even look at it'!. So, I bought a new one (higher specs) for E129.
Best of luck in retrieving yours!
