...that dreaded time in gadgetry again: you're going to have to choose between competing technologies. Did you bet Beta or VHS? Did you do Windows or bite into Macintosh? What call did you make on cellular vs. PCS phones? The next coin toss is in photography, in which a new line of digital cameras that store pictures on memory chips rather than film is fighting it out with Advanced Photo System models, an innovative take on traditional 35-mm film...
