that depends on what type of photography you do. I have a Kodak easyshare DX6490. If you are not looking at professional photography then yes this should be a reasonable camera for what you want.
My dad bought this camera and i have been using it but i would not reccomed it for the photography enthusiast. as there are some features (or lack of) that would really annoy people who want to take great photos.
ill start with the good points though.
its 4 MegaPixels (for some this would b a bad feature) but if you just want to point and shoot keep in mind 4 MP can produce about an a4 picture without losing quality.
a reasonable sized screen to view your images on
a 'swap view' setting (whether you view the scene in front of you through the lcd or the view finder/eye piece) which is really handy when ur in the sun as the screen can be difficult to see
10x Optical Zoom
Video Capabilities
a lot of nice features for the point and shoot e.g date stamp so you know when you were on holiday.
Now for the bad points
for starters there is about a 5/6 sec delay between the time u turn the thing on to when you can actually take a picture.
Takes a long time to focus on close things
often focusus on the wrong thing
very little difference between all the settings (macro, landscape, action ect) the camera does not compensate for what these settings mean. like youd think if you choose the action setting your gonna want to take a picture of something moving, but there is no image stabilization or drastic change in shutterspeed.
All in all i think i might have confused everyone but my personal opinion is that this is a good camera to start off with. my dad and my sister loves it and they dont know a thing about photography. im only baggin it because im used to the prof models.
hope i didn't confuse u too much

My personal preference is to use pretty much any camera with a mac. You can get a mac mini for like $600. iPhoto is really easy and cool. Look into at least.
good luck!

I'd go with the Canon A530. Kodak was good for film, not so much for digital.

if you wanna spend, go for the kd 10 from kodak. its the best to start with blutooth, large screen, lots of resolution, and a ten x optical zoom.

Yes, I work in retail, Sears, and see tons of those camera's sold, not only are they moderately affordable, but they're simple to use and currently pretty popular.
