What camera should I buy next?

Recently bought a Nikon D40. Love it. But I am looking to add a small travel camera that has really good video capabilities. I want it to take great snapshots but it should be a powerful video camera too. It should also be under $350.

The Canon powershot TX1 is exactly what I am looking for, but it has gotten mixed reviews. Any alternatives? The ability to shoot good video is important to me.

ability to shoot video at what resolution?

Canon 1100IS can do 640×480 @30fps

Panasonic Lumix FX37 can do 1280×720 @30fps

New Casio Exilims can capture up to 848×480 @30fps

I think the Lumix FX37 and FX35 should be at the top of your to-do list.

    The only way to get really good videos is to buy a camcorder.
