I have an Olympus C4000 which goes for about $350.

Very simple to use and the pictures are quite good.

The reviews I read put it close to the Canon G2 for a much better price.

I just got the Nikon Coolpix 5700 and let me tell you that it takes some really nice pictures. I highly recommend it. It is a bit pricy however at about $1200.

Good point someone made also about Photoshop (Or similar utilities). Once you start to get to grips with manipulating your images you can often rescue some of your crappy shots (I don't take any of THOSE of course ) With a digital camera and Photoshop you can achieve pretty well anything you want with a little practice.
Simply for the fact that ALL pictures taken with digital cameras will benefit greatly from using "Un-Sharp Mask". It is the nature of the beast.

I just got a Canon S45 about a month ago. If the Canon G3 is too much camera (and $) the S45 is worth considering. It's 4 megapixels, has a bunch of different auto and manual modes, is small enough to slip in a pocket, and fairly easy to use. It also shoots videos up to 3 minutes long.

www.dpreview.com had a pretty favorable review. If you shop around, you can find one for $500 (not including the extra battery and memory card).
