My Dad bought my Brother a camera for Christmas, and I picked it out. We were looking for small form factor and best value.
We bought a Canon Powershot SD400 5MP Digital Elph Camera with 3x Optical Zoom from Amazon.

$285. Uses SD cards, tho.
3.5 x 2.1 x 0.8 inches ; 8.0 ounces
Enhanced movie mode with fast 60-frame-per-second capture rate
DIGIC II Image Processor provides fast, accurate image processing
Powered by rechargeable Lithium-ion battery; stores images on SD memory card
5-megapixel CCD captures enough detail for photo-quality 13 x 17-inch prints
3x optical zoom; 2.0-inch LCD display; ultra-compact design (.8 inches thick)
