£300 pocket camera

[Amp34]

My dad just got some insurance money through from the loss of his old camera and wants to buy a new one. He wants it for general snapping like holidays etc and wants to spend around £300. Between say 5 and 7mp and a standard zoom. Any ideas?

Thanks

Theres the sony dsc N1 (i think thats right) Its very easy to use and has ahd favourable reviews, it is small but comes with a large touch screen lcd screen on it which is pretty cool.
