I've been trying out the cable-release bracket for the Canon A95 from Pennine Photographic for a few days now.
Typical of Pennine, it's a very fuss-free affair, with no moving parts... in fact it's little more than an angled piece of metal attached via the tripod socket of the camera and with the requisite threaded aperture for the cable-release to screw-in.
The design doesn't obstruct the camera's zoom control nor the memory card slot, though you will need to loosen the bracket and swing it around slightly to change batteries (fair enough).
In use.... it works The test images that I took were noticably sharper than when using my finger to trigger the shutter, even though I had good light (fast shutter-speeds) when using my finger.
