Is it important to have image stabilization on a point-and-shoot camera?

I am going to buy a point-and-shoot digital camera to take some basic photos. Is it important to buy one with image stabilization?

If the camera does not have a viewfinder, it is nearly imperative unless you are an experienced photographer and can handhold shots without camera movement.

Holding the camera up to your face and using both hands to steady it makes IS a nice extra feature. Having to hold the camera at arm's length makes IS a necessity
