The price of most digital cameras tend to trend downwards over time, and the same price drop should occur in the case of the Canon S95 compact prosumer digital camera.
I’m not planning for any scheduled updates, but do check back here from time to time for the latest and best prices on the Canon S95 and related accessories.

Canon PowerShot S95 10 MP Digital Camera with 3.8x Wide Angle Optical Image Stabilized Zoom and 3.0-Inch inch LCD: $395.00 ($4 price reduction since the last update).
S95 Accessories and Add-ons
Rechargeable Canon NB-6L Li-Ion Battery Pack: Get a second lithium-ion battery for your S95 as a backup. A second, fully-charged battery is the best way to ensure that your S95 continues to have a power source when the one inside the camera runs out of juice.
Canon WP-DC35 Waterproof Housing: This underwater case is a required accessory if you intend to take your Canon S95 diving or snorkeling for underwater photography, or to other inclement conditions.
For storage, the S95 uses SD, SDHC or the latest SDXC cards.
Refer to Rob Galbraith’s SD / SDHC card write speed tests (done on a Nikon D90) to get an idea on the relative write and read speeds of different brands of cards. At the time of writing (Oct 29, 2009), the SanDisk Extreme III SDHC cards occupy the top two spots.
To ensure smooth recording of video and high resolution images, go for Class 6 or faster cards.
You might like to read the Canon S95 Manual to get a better understanding of the camera’s features and capabilities. Some general pointers in Photography Tips might be of additional help.
Good luck shopping for your Canon S95!
