Ever wondered what was inside of one of those tiny Canon S10 cameras?  Well, the folks at Portelligent specialize in "product teardowns" and have reverse engineered a number of digital cameras.

To show you what they can do they have made their teardown of the Canon S10 available to anyone that wishes to see it. Clicking on the link requires that you have the Adobe Acrobat Reader or plugin, it's also free. This is not just a "take the case off" kind of teardown, they completely disassemble these cameras, right before your eyes.

Visit Portelligent's Digital Imaging Channel to see the products they have analyzed. They also offer a weekly news service (TAS), here's some month-old samples to peruse.
