looking for a digital camera for less than $200

I've been looking in to getting a digital camera for awhile now and I finally decided to get one. What are some good ones that you guys could recommend. I'm just looking for something that takes pretty good pictures and I really don't wanna spend more than like $150 but definately no more than $200. Any suggestions. Right now im thinking about getting this one http://www.thinkgeek.com/electronics/cameras/62ae/

Panasonic makes excellent cameras. HERE is a 3.2 MP model for around $200. Cannon is another good brand, HERE is model for your budget. Nikon makes good cameras as well. Any of THESE models would be good.

Il'll recommend the Canon A60. EXCELLENT camera, plus it uses CompactFlash media, which is the cheapest.

The Canon Powershot A60 (mentioned above) is the absolute best sub $200 digicam money can buy. Jump on it!
