HP Photosmart M637. I bought recently and I am really happy for my purchase because the price is very good (120€, about 180 dollars, with 1GB SD included) and the quality of photos is formidable, at least for the photos I made up till now.

...After dropping my beloved samsung camera and it developing a nasty grinding and stuttering shutter, I have just updated my camera to the ultra smart and ultra equipped Hewlett PackardPhotoSmartM637.
What a great choice I made.
