Here's a photo of my success:

Nice test shot...DOF is pretty shallow and you got a nice blur going on in the background. Nice job.
I used to think that you couldn't do shallow DOF with a P&S but after viewing a few amazing pictures on Flickr (taken by teenagers...oh to be young and carefree again) I knew I was so wrong.
