I have the Canon S2 IS and I love it!
The website,
www.dcresource.com tells you allllll about it. It gives you everything you need to know about cameras. You get pictures of the cameras and also pictures they took WITH the cameras for comparison. They give you reviews, rundowns, the works! Highly recommended.
Here is the link for my camera.

This one is a little pricey for you, I think. I paid $400 for it. I would go with the Kodak Easyshare, that one, I've heard decent things about.
Good luck!!
