I've currently got a Sony DSC-P93, which has slowly been going downhill. The
images are coming out poor most of the time, regardless of settings, and
besides that, I think it's time for an upgrade anyway.

I need a *good* digital point & shoot with something more than 3X optical
zoom, and with a *good* movie mode with sound. I do NOT want to get into the
DSLR's -- I need something compact and lightweight.

Does such an item exist? I tried the Canon A710 but it wasn't any better
than the Sony (in fact, the movie mode was a lot worse!). And, I'd like to
get something even smaller than the Canon or the Sony, if possible.

I would appreciate *any* recommendations that anyone has on this subject.
Thanks!
