Canons are always good cameras. Kodaks are good too, if what you need something that's simple to use and has a handy-dandy printer.
Really, there are so many things to consider. I've found that dcresource.com and imaging-resource.com were VERY helpful when I bought my new camera.
I ended up with the Fuji F10. It's a bit more camera than I'd originally thought I'd wanted, but I love love love it!

While I love the upscale Nikon cameras, I'd suggest you look into the Canon A620. We did a lot of shopping while trying to stay in the under $400 range and this is exactly what we bought for our adult son before he went on a trip to Europe. For that money, you can get the camera and a one gigabyte memory card. The A620 lets you control everything, if you know how, or it takes great shots in several automatic modes. It uses "AA" batteries, too.
The A620 was a Comcast Shopping Top Choice for several months.
Consumer Reports for November 2006 has ranked the Canon Powershot A620 as the best compact digital camera. It is becoming almost a legend for longevity at the top of various consumer lists.

I would recommend Canon as a very good and reliable brand with great optical quality.
Look at...
A620 (4X optical, 7.1MP)
A630 (4X optical, 8MP)
