What's the best point and shoot camera less than $200?

Question by Benjamin: What's the best point and shoot camera less than 0?
We're buying one for my sister's birthday and we want to get her a really good point and shoot camera. She's not a professional or anything.

As long as you avoid Kodak, Benq, Vivitar and GE, you can't go far wrong.

If she doesn't mind something a little bigger, and creative control, look at bridge cameras from Fujifilm or Panasonic (Lumix).

If you buy Canon or Nikon at this level, all you'll get is an expensive, but poorly-specified camera.
