You Decide: What's the best way to record a round-the-world trip?

Your neighbours are off on a once-in-a-lifetime round-the-world trip, and they reckon they need a new camera. What do you suggest they buy? Is a compact camera the best solution, or would it be better to go for a digital SLR now they are just as easy to use? Or should they take a different approach? Are cameraphones now good enough to replace compact cameras, or should they consider taking movies with something as easy-to-use as a Flip HD video camera?

Unlike them, you're also thinking about making sure they have enough storage space and don't lose their pictures before they get home. Upload to a website? If so, which?

The floor is open. A selection of your comments will be published in the next issue of the Technology section.
