Hi everyone, I wonder if I could pick your brains?

Until recently I had a Sony DSC-U30 which I used for day to day use, snaps basically, cars at work for our Autotrader listings, the odd landscape to use as a desktop. I also liked to keep it with me when I went out for drunken snaps of my mates high jinks.

Anyway the sony took a knock in my pocket killing the LCD so is no more.

Now I am in the market for a replacement, something very small which I will carry daily, I don't need massive resolution, 3 to 4 megapixel will probably suffice. I don't want to spend much more than £250, as I mentioned this will be taken on beery trips so I want something that I won't be too gutted if it gets destroyed.

I wondered about one of the new weatherproof Mjus or a Canon Ixus but have seen and fancied a Sony T3.

Anyone any advice or views?

Cheers everyone.

Mark

Using a canon Ixus IIs today, and its very nice, although very limiting for what i needed it for.

Great point and shoot and is around £170, which gives you easily enough to buy a 1GB SD card.

I've had a few Ixus over the years. Great little things.
