Since you sound like an honest person, I would buy the digital camera first since flash player and 17" LCDs will drop in price by September drastically.
With your digicam you can take a lot of nice pictures in the summer.

Also keep in mind that manufacturers start to release new camera model because of the season and therefore some older models will drop in price.

MacBain Camera is a good start

I would suggest re-investing that money into your RRSPs...

By this do you mean standard price drops over time with hi-tech devices, or is there a specific reason these particular items will drop greatly in price?

Isn't that similar to the idea behind investing... "investing earlier is better than investing later"?

Absolutely! You will be worth more money. Start as young as you possibly can.
