At the price I don`t think it is a genuine 4 Mega pixel but a "Interpolated" one. This means it could be a 2 Mega but digitally enhanced to get the 4 Million. It does not say so on site but I bet it is.

They still look good for the price but would like to see some full size photos taken with them first. E-mail them and ask them to send you some samples.

Firstly think what you want to do with the photos ( eg e-mail only or print at A4?) Generally speaking you need a 2 Million for photos up to 7x5 but if you want bigger, a 3 Million plus is needed. I have a Kodak 3700 which is 3.1 Million and it gives very good pictures even when printed at A4.

could you just not ask them in email if it`s "interpolated"?

The Trust 820 is advertised at £129 in the latest Staples advert/newspaper that you can pick up in store. (slightly cheaper than Evesham and you could save on postage !)

Has anybody bothered getting one ? is it any good ?

My mate has a Fuji 1300 (1.3m) and the Trust 4m camera.
He prefers the Fuji pictures and really regrets buying the Trust one!
