Any...idea about the 300hs and CHDK? I know a couple of people have mentioned that for a very small, very pocketable camera, the 300hs seemed good - except that there aren't any manual controls.

Don't know if there is any active development on this yet - keep an eye on the CHDK forums.

Also curious if the s100 is ever supported if you might have any idea whether we could get manual control over the shutter speed - though 1080p is obviously reduced resolution, and a higher shutter speed it opens up some interesting possibility for taking video to capture just the right moment in a photo. The drawback of that now is that the 1/24 shutter speed of 24fps video leads to come significant blur if there's any action in the scene. Just a curious question.

Hard to say. There is a script available to add manual exposure control to video and it works on some cameras; but tends to be unstable (if you decrease the shutter speed below the video fps the camera will probably crash). I built this into the IXUS 310 using touch screen controls - again it works; but will sometimes crash.

Gotcha, thanks for the info you know on the subject.
