HELP! Advice on camera for gift??

My dad wants to buy me a camera for xmas (lucky me!) but I need to do the research and decide which one I want, and am having trouble...

MUST HAVES:
-good quality
-long battery life
-ultra-compact (needs to fit in a small purse)

NICE-TO-HAVES:
-big LCD display (2.5"+)

It needs to be in the $200 range since its a gift.
Anyone have any tips/experience to offer??

Thanks!

Natalie,

I started out using a Canon PowerShot S230 and I still use it on certain occasions. It fits great in my pocket and has a good size screen. Its a bit outdated and you might try upgrading to the Canon PowerShot SD450. Its about the same size and meets all the other specs you're looking for (priced around $200 with a 2.5" LCD screen). Good luck in your search!
