I just picked up a Fujo F10. W/ a 512 memory card and case it ran about $330 delivered. The battery is supposed to hold up for something like 500 shots & the pictures are kick-ass. It's about the size of a disposable. One cool thing about the F10 is it's high ISO ability which stands out in dark environments. One of the more advanced camera guys here can probably tell you more about that though.

I used several reviews on diff cameras to make my choice, these two were very helpful:

I have a Kodak V530   www.kodak.com/eknec/PageQuerier.jhtml?pq-path=9/19/31/7113&pq-locale=en_US



Cost me $250 at Walmart.
Size of a pack of cigarettes - optical zoom - 5 megapixels ( takes short videos also)
Really Feature loaded.

approx. 120 pictures per charge (comes with charger).

ONLY downside is the flash is really limited to closeup distances.
