Fiddling with an Ixus

In the best spirit of looking beyond Windows/Linux development, the recently acquired digicam Canon DIGITAL IXUS 970 IS seemed to be a good target for some practicing. They sport ARM based processors, which we gathered some experience on when working on dumping tools for the Dreamcast.
The main goal is to help the CHDK community to port their enhancements over to the Ixus 970. Obviously the first step in doing so is to dump the original firmware, and it seems there was no dump of a PAL device with version GM1.00C available yet. Things have changed, and the firmware has been made available to the public by vware!
