Help buying a digital camera

I've been looking to buy a digital camera. I'm willing to spend about $400. It needs to have good quality, so 4-5 megapixels. I've been looking at Canon's Powershot A80, and Sony's cyber-shot 5.0 megapixel DSC-P10. I've been reading conflicting things though. Memory stick is slower than compact flash, and its more expensive. Then theres the difference in megapixels, how much of a difference will it make? I also want something that has some cool features and I want it to be fast(like from turn on to taking a picture and taking many pictures in a short amount of time) Anyone have any of these or can offer another suggestion?

Buy the Canon S400. It is part of the Elph series of cameras. Rave Reviews, 4MP, 3x opt zoom, 9 point autofocus, about as big as a deck of cards.

Excellent camera, I am waiting for it to come down a bit.

$400 shipped at newegg, w/free tripod.

take some time and read the reviews/look at the example pics. They are very helpful.

BTW max PC gave this camera a 10/kickass

I mean these reviews, not buyer reviews, but you can read those too.
