CNET takes a look at the five megapixel Casio Exilim EX-S500 digital camera which features 3x optical zoom. Here's a snippet:

The latest in Casio's slim-jim line of card cameras, the 5-megapixel Exilim EX-S500 offers a 3X optical zoom and a number of features missing in its predecessor, the S100. They include a burst mode, MPEG-4 video capture, and the ever-important AF illuminator, rounding out this pocket camera's generous feature set. Its photo quality doesn't distinguish it, but if you're not too picky about that, it's definitely worth a look.
