For point-and-shoot cameras I shop for the most optical zoom you can find as well as megapixels. Lots of good choices out there!!

Just don't get lulled into the mega-pixle wars.. sometimes less is more, especially with smaller point-and-shoot (non DSLR) cameras that don't rely on CMOS.
That's why Canon went from 14.1 mp on the G10 to 10mp on the G11.
I don't think the OP wants a DSLR.. since they are less useful if you're not buying a bunch of gear (ie, lenses).
