I, too, have wondered about the possibility of this.  We are hoping to do
the road/ferry loop from Vancouver Island to Alaska, back through Bella
Coola to the Island next summer and had thought it would be great to be able
to use the digital camera en-route, saving/posting exceptional pictures to
friends/family and the home computer.  The concern was whether there would
be problems with the power supply to the laptop or exceptional drain on the
battery - obviously I know nothing about how all this works, I just want
someone to tell me it's possible and how best to go about it.

Anybody thoughts?
