I'm looking for a subcompact camera, a pocket camera.
I don't intend to "create memorable images" or take portraits, just want
something I can "whip" out of the pocket and take a snapshot.
Preferably not over $250. I had a Canon Powershot SD 780 that served me
well but I dropped it...disastrously. :-(
*small* is the key word here.
Any recommendations?

One of the smaller Canon Ixus 125 if you already have and like Canons.

I have an Ixus 100is - one of the last to have a traditional viewfinder.
It is easily pocketable. Its predecessor an Ixus V was too - just about.
