I have a Kodak Easyshare CX7300. It was around 100 bucks.
It has a 3.2 megapixel in the high resoltion mode. Most of the time I use a lower resolution so I can store more pictures. It also has a video feature (no sound).
I upgraded to 256 MB memory right away. I can get about 1100 pictures in that mode.

I have a sony DSC-W5 5.1 mega pixel that I really like with a Carl Zeiss lense. 3x zoom. It even takes some video, but the quality isn't the best.

I have a couple steps below this one and love it! The A80 I think is about $200 right now. It takes great pics and movies.

i liked the cannons, but i found a comparable nikon for about $75 less, only difference was that the nikon didnt include a memory card.
i picked up the nikon cool pix 4600 (4 mega pixels) for $175 and got a 512mb memory card for $40. the camera is awesome, its tiny, the whole thing is not much bigger than my palm and about and inch and half thick. i ordered it at bestbuy.com and picked it up in the store this afternoon.
