If it's good enough for Maria Sharapova, it's good enough for moi.
"With 8.0 megapixels of resolution, an Optical Image Stabilizer and 3.8x optical zooming, the SD870 IS Digital ELPH boasts impressive specs as well as a host of convenient features. Face Detection Technology for worry-free people shots."
I'm hoping to order this ASAP. My camera died - luckily (or unluckily) I had an extended warranty thru American TV, so the manufacturer deemed the camera unfixable, which means I got a gift card with the amount of a camera of equal or lesser value. That amounted to only about $160 :( The camera cost $350 2 years ago.
The bad/unlucky thing is that American TV has a crappy camera selection now. I think something bad business-wise might be going on behind the scenes there. They used to have all the top electronics, now they only offer last years models and maybe only 1 or 2 models that are brand new. Pretty disappointing.
So in my searching I found that this camera is the best for my needs - ultracompact, great MP, great zoom, great lens. Also, pretty stylish! :) And everyone seems to rate it really really high for all the other important stuff! At only $300, it's not bad at all price-wise.

OK, I bought it...
In the end it cost me $385, with an extended warranty thru Best Buy. I decided to go with them, because the hubs bought his there and we had a good experience in dealing with the extended warranty stuff. I would have purchased it online for much less, but decided that the extended warranty has always been beneficial to us. :)
I played with it a bit at Best Buy - the screen is nice and bright, and there's loads of awesome features. Now on to figuring this thing out! Except I have to wait for 2.5 hours... Damn, why can't they include pre-charged batteries with these things??
