Well, I've narrowed my search down to three cameras, all from Canon. They are:

Canon PowerShot s200 Digital ELPH:

http://www.powershot.com/powershot2/s200/index.html

Canon PowerShot s230 Digital ELPH:

Canon PowerShot A70:

http://www.powershot.com/powershot2/a70-60/index.html

My Take:
The A70 looks like it has the best features, and seems to be the best value, but is it too big? I'm really enticed by the small size of the ELPHs. However, the 230 seems too expensive, while the 200 is on its way out, and seems rather light on features. Can anyone offer any advice on these particular models?
