Hi, heading to New Zealand in two weeks

Any advice on a cheap and cheerful point and click digital.

Something that is easy to fit in a pocket and retrieve quickly.

Budget up to $150 maybe more.

Cheers

If you're looking for a go anywhere camera for when you're out on the trails, this sounds quiet promising:

A compact, lightweight, water and dust-resistant, wide-angle, 5x zoom digital camera featuring enhanced shock resistance for outdoor use.

Doesn't look like it has a built in lens cover, which is odd, and as Gizmodo put it:

Does a waterproof and dust-proof camera really have to be as fugly as this?

I know there's that Oregon Scientific AT18 thing, but as discussed (ATA Vids) it's output was not so impressive.
