I am going to buy the wife a new camera for Christmas.  It needs to be shock, water, and dust resistant.  She is very rough with her technology, and a bit clumsy.  So it has to take a beating.  She also likes playing with all the features and being artsy.  Point and shoot capability that figures out everything for you is a plus because she always insists I take some pictures of her when we are traveling.  Money isn't really a problem.  I'm assuming most cameras in this category are less than $500.  So what are your recommendations?

And ironically, I will not post pictures in the photography forum.
