Miscellaneous

Are there particular brands you like or hate?

I like Sony for their design. and don't hate any brands in particular. No name brand are a no no.

Are there particular models you already have in mind?

I can't decide between

Sony Cyber-shot 5.1-Megapixel Digital Camera - Silver
Model: DSC-T5

and

Sony Cyber-shot 8.1-Megapixel Digital Camera
Model: DSC-W100

I like the DSC-T5 because it looks good and is slim and cheaper than the DSC-W100. Sale: $237.49 at bestbuy

DSC-W100's 8.1MP excites me but i don't realy need it if MP only means bigger pictures. which of these two camera will have better picture qulity? Sale: $332.49 at bestbuy

It does not have to be sony cameras only, as long as any other well known name brand cameras that are sleek and slim with excellent design.

Thanks everyone.
