It is somewhat disappointing, to say the least. I do give some credit for posting it though. Even though things didn't work out as planned it is nice to see what happened.
What?
WELL, THAT AND PROGRESSIVE HEARING LOSS.
"Filter error: Don't use so many caps. It's like YELLING." - Yeah, that's what I was trying to do
The page you linked to claims that CHDK is not available for the S90. How about the PowerShot SD880?
Oh, this can 't be happening! You're operating without a T-437, Vermont!
Sweet mother of mercy!

Disco Stu: Did you know that disco record sales were up 400% for the year ending 1976? If these trends continue... A-y-y-y!
The University of Colorado has something called Physics 2000 that has a bunch of applets. Click on "Applet Thumbnails" in the top-left frame. One of my favorites is "Satellite orbits" (click on "Upcoming Applets"). You can try to find stable orbits around the Earth. You can try to find stable orbits around the Moon (although I don't think there are any). You can try launching some objects clockwise and some counter-clockwise and see if it is easier to get things in a stable orbit one way or the other. You can launch a bunch of objects in random directions with random velocities and watch most of them die an early death and a few stick around much longer. Sometimes you can see Orbital resonance. The simulation extends beyond the visible portion of the screen so you can even get objects in orbits with very long periods that are only visible for a very short portion of their orbit as they dip close to the Earth and then sail away again.
An authority is a person who can tell you more about something than you really care to know.
