The all time winner bargain compact digital camera is the Canon 7.1 megapixel PowerShot SD1000 [not the SD1100 [IS] 7.1 with an added 2- gig memory card which when set in the manual mode for “Vivid” colors and videos at 30 fps in 320 dpi format provides killer images and videos under low light conditions. It’s especially good for low-light concerts. The macro feature is superb for taking closeups of small butterflies, insects, etc. It currently sells for $140 at techgearnow.com:

Good luck!

You can’t go wrong with a Canon A590IS is the form factor suits you. Also good by Canon is the 1100IS, and the new Powershot A1000IS.
Cameras noted for good video with still above avg photos:
Casio Exilim EX-Z80, EX-Z1080
Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS5
Kodak (yes, Kodak) V1073 w/3″ Touchscreen and 720HD video recording

If you buy online, I suggest to check Amazon.com (use “Ships from and sold by Amazon.com.” option when you can) for some of the best prices around.
Good Luck!

I recommend Canon and Sony Cameras. You can have a look at the
Canon PowerShot SD1100IS 8MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom (Blue)..It is about $163.
