Hi Mike,
You know what, Canon has two names for that first camera, I think they use both the names "Canon Digital IXUS 100 IS" and "Canon PowerShot SD780 IS" to refer to the same cameras, but in different markets (US and Europe?).
If you check out the comparison: http://www.snapsort.com/compare/Canon...
It shows near the bottom:
Also known as:Canon Digital IXUS 100 IS
Perhaps in the future we should not change the camera name on you like that, and use whatever name you searched for as the title.
Thanks for the feedback.

Hi Mike, we've made a few updates to the site including an improvement for this, see our blog post for the details. -
There is definitely an interesting discussion to be had as whether these are the same. However, given that you are collapsing down to one name, it'd be good to see some notification. Perhaps a message in a flash at the top? I didn't search down for the alias, and I doubt anyone else will (IMHO).
Regardless, snapsort is a good idea!
