Hi Kirk,
As you can see here the SD500 is a camera that plenty of people have and like. It's been produced within the last two years, so it's not exactly obsolete, but there are a number of newer models in the Canon SD series.
The SD500 was introduced in February of 2005. Since then, there have been about eight new SD models introduced, including a couple with optical image stabilization. The newest models are the SD800 IS (one of the models featuring the image stabilization system) and the SD900.
I don't think you necessarily need to purchase a newer model simply because yours isn't the newest. That should be a decision based on how well you like the photos your SD500 produces, and whether it's a good overall fit for your needs.
Good luck!
