Bummer! I found my digital camera...

So I've been looking for a new pocket digital camera. I currently have a Digital Camera, a Minolta Dimage Xt 3.2MP; it does photos, movies, audio recording and in a pinch it'll work as a thumb drive (I think it'll even work as a webcam on a windows machine). I mentioned it as one of my top 5 electronic toys you can't live without a few years ago and it still is. It's awesome it takes wonderful pictures, it's a nice and small, but it doesn't work well in low light so when I'm shooting inside, that's really the only reason why I don't like it.

Last night I took it with my on a bike ride, they were already setting up floats for the parade today so I wanted to take a few photos up close. This morning I couldn't find it anywhere, I really thought I lost it on the way home. So I wondered down to the parade today with my awesome bigger clunkier camera, which takes beautiful pictures, but it's just a little big to carry around everywhere. Today, it really seemed too big so I pretty much made the decision that I have to go shopping for a new camera today. But sadly, I did another look around before I went shopping and I found the other digital camera.

I talked on the phone to my mother a few minutes ago and the first thing she said was "Bummer!" because she knew I would have liked to have had an excuse to go buy a new one. I really try not to be too wasteful with my with my technology dollars and buy every new thing that comes out.

I'll still be this one for a while longer but I am looking for recommendations on a small everyday camera, especially something that works well indoors but it has to have a viewfinder (I don't care about the size of the display) and as long as it's 4+ mega-pixels. Maybe something like a Canon SD1100, SD1000 or SD850, any thoughts?
