FredWilson's recommendation

even with a cracked screen (my fault, not theirs) this is my camera of choice.

it's small, has great software/ui, and takes phenomenal pictures.

but most of all, it uses a standard USB cable to download pictures.

no custom cables for me. (via Staviean)

First to recommend

The Canon SD500 is my first "pocket" camera and I am truly impressed with it. Before the SD500, I used my Sony Mavica (MVC-CD500) which is actually very large but had all the features I wanted. The SD500 still allows for the user to manipulate a number of different settings to get the picture just right. In addition to the camera being "pocket" sized, it is also a 7.1 mega pixel camera which is truly amazing, along with a terrific video quality.

All in all, the SD500 has impressed me and has kept me more than satisfied with my purchase.

Small, lightweight, good battery life, SD media, rugged, great movies, and ... great pictures. This was my companion that I took virtually everywhere. About the only thing that stopped it was being dropped on a rocky cliff in Yosemite, which completely mucked up the telephoto mechanism. So, beyond that, it's great.
