For me comfort on long hikes is very important when carrying quite a bit of weight and I've still yet to see any camera rucksac that has anything like the design features of a dedicated hiking one (freeflow back system, straps designed with weight distribution in mind etc)
http://www.vimeo.com/11497898 at 2:20 he shows you that it has a waist belt, an aluminium caring frame to distribute the weight and a mess between them for the free flow off air on your back.
I'm going to have a look at that one tomorrow if I can get the car.
It's €269 (£225) over here.

There is also a small amount of play in the focus ring.
For the problem... it could maybe be a problem with the communication with the lens and the camera, I don't know of anything mechanical that can lock it up.

Stefan you are preaching to the gallery.
I think we are all aware of that and the various places from which you can buy new memory cards also warn you of that .
Well yes that's quite known but I thought you didn't knew because you found it strange your Kodak couldn't handle cards bigger than 2GB.

Your camera has a SD slot and not a SDHC one so it can't handle SDHC cards.
SD is the original standard and those card will only go up to 2GB that's why they have improve the SD standard to SDHC which is faster and support the larger cards up to 32GB.
SDXC is the newest standard that comes after SDHC it's also an improvement on that and it support bigger and faster cards up to 2TB.
SD cards will fit in all.
SDHC will fit in SDHC and SDXC machines but not in SD.
SDXC will only fit in SDXC machines.

So there you have it. Apart from the original Ltds (and perhaps the 50mm 1:1.4), no currently available prime lens is going to provide a really noticeable improvement in overall image quality over a good zoom.
Also the DA*55 is a better lens than the FA50 and the FA43.
And who doesn't love the DA*300 here?
