My samsung camera will not turn on. The lens is extended. When I push the power button the blue light comes
on, camera beeps, then light goes of. If i push the picture button a picture will come on for 3 seconds
then beeps and goes off.

When I press the power button it lights up, makes a loud beep and turns off again. Nothing comes on the screen.
When I press the display button, a stored image shows for a moment and then it makes the loud beep and turns
off. The lens will not retract.

Oh, and there's a guy on Ebay trying to pawn off his SL202 with stuck lens for it's repair parts value, which he apparently thinks is 40$.

Frozen lens happened to them, it happened to me, and it could happen to you. I guess the take-away point here is not to buy an SL202; I won't be buying any kind of Samsung camera ever again...stuck lens seems like somewhat of a common problem with digital cams, but it seems like a much bigger issue with the SL202; it wasn't released too long ago, and there are so many people with the same problem over the past couple of months.
