MY @@!#$$ Nikon Died

Shit! Yes, le camera ce mort..."lens error" when first turned on. I feel blind. I cannot see thru my camera anymore, like I lost the eye of the cyclopse and am now falling into the abyss. I first didn't believe it, how could this high tech all metal wonder the Nikon Coolpix S10 be so very sick. The message "lens error" was indicated in the manual as needing the services of a Nikon approved service center. I changed the battery. I changed the SD memory card. I removed and reinserted the battery a thousand times. I froze the camera. I heated it up. Wirrrrr and then "lens error". Shit. So now to replace it. I only want IT, I bought accessories, a lens cap, 2 spare batteries and several SD cards. Shit. So onto eBay to find how few people will or CAN ship to France from the US of A. Too difficult I guess. Too risky for a perpetually scared public. Oh well. I MUST have another. After reading about "lens error" I've discovered that many other cameras Nikon, Olympus, Canon etc. etc. there MUST be a thousand makes and more models than you can shake a stick at. I only WANT this one. Heck.
