Need a good point-and-shoot under $200.

That's not a bad camera. 10 MP is damn nice, and Canon is a good brand. Just be sure to carry a few spare batteries, especially if you use the flash. Overall, not a bad camera, however!

eventually if you get into DSLR,, you'll learn that the DSLR body (d40, d200, d300, etc...) are all disposible,,, they have a shelf life... only so many actuations....
you invest money in your lenses... lenses will be interchangable from camera bodies to camera bodies...
I have a D300... you could pick up for under 1G

I have about $3,000 in lenses... which I will be able to use with any DSLR Body...

Here's how it went down:

Went to Sears early this morning to pick up a SX120 IS. They were sold out, so the sales guy offered my a Fujifilm Finepix S1800 which is actually a lot more than the SX - $230 before taxes. Fortunately, there was only one more in the back, so he gave it to me at clearance, just $110 after taxes. So I got myself a pretty nice superzoom for just over $100.

12.2 MP, 18X optical zoom, dual image stabilization, and it shoots quickly for a P&S.

Winning!

I just played around with this thing for about an hour, trying out the different settings on manual mode. It even does HD video and can do continuous shooting at 1.3 fps..not bad for a glorified P&S.
