You should really look for at least 3MPixels. For reviews on cameras look here:

and I found these guys to be one of the cheapest:

I would guess that it has 1.3M Pixels since it's the number from the title.
I also have a 1.3M Pixel camera and it's fine - only need more if you are going to print very high qual photos and then you will be limited by your printer/paper. 1.3 is fine for looking at on a computer.
3M only takes up more memory and disk space.
BTW - never heard of the Camera

correct, 1.3 pixies
Bry, the reason you may not have heard of the camera is because North Croy is always getting the new ideas before the rest of Scotland especially Falkirk, who have just found the wheel

That's right a' forgot aboot that, At the Ally presentation, Andy's hamster (croy rocket) kept falling of the wheel in his camera and it widnae work.
p.s. Practica is a good make I have a 35mm had it for 16 years and it is still working great.

Practica are a good make of 35mm cameras, but their digi stuff is not that good, avoid them if you can (Unless you go for the pro range).

If you have to buy flashcards ect, don't go to the "in town" shops. Try http://www.7dayshop.com, www.digitaldepot.co.uk or http://www.kelko .com. The prices are a hell of a lot cheaper.
