Because I had a little overtime and therefore a little extra money in my current paycheck, I want to buy a new digital camera. My trusty HP Photosmart 735 with 3.2 MP is on its last legs....it's been dropped once too often, I believe.

I'm giving serious consideration to this Canon PowerShot, but I have to go look at it first.
Recommendations gladly accepted.
At any rate, my criteria for a new camera are as follows:
- Under $200.00 USD.
- At least 8 MP, preferably more if possible within budgetary limitations.
- Has an actual viewfinder, not just a playback screen. Yes, I'm old school. I prefer to frame my shot through a viewfinder.
- A capacity for "rapid-fire" shooting is desired, but not required.
- Both internal memory and memory card capability are desired, but not required.
