I am deciding between the stylus 1050 or the fe-370, which is a better camera. I found the fe-370 for $100 and the 1050 bundle for $179

I think you need to ask yourself if you're hard on your cameras. The Stylus has the advantage of being survivable as a drop from up to 5 feet, survive water to a depth of up to 33 feet, and extreme temperatures of 10 degrees. To me, that's the defining feature of the 1050SW. If you don't think that's necessary for you, then I'd go with the Fuji.
