Good value and ease of use
Clear photos with enough detail for cropping, especially in bright daylight. Colors are accurate. I use PhotoShop for cropping and image enhancement. Small size and light weight; fits in shirt pocket. Low price means no worries about bringing it with you. The combination of an optical viewfinder and 5x optical zoom is an exceptional feature. Accepts SDHC card (not included).
Uses 2 AA batteries, widely available. Recommended accessory: 4 rechargeable batteries and charger. Better battery life with NiCad rechargeables.
Camera body, battery cover door, tripod socket are all plastic, but durability OK if handled carefully. Use the wrist strap to avoid dropping.

Not bad for price :)
Very fine camera for price, I have read reviews that complained about the battery caps for coming off and breaking...well, they must have very strong hands...because I really don't find it possible...well, maybe unless you smash it but i don't see why you would do that..
I got this for 69.99 so with tax it's around $75-ish.
Comes with two AA batteries and no does not come with SDHC card.
Takes decent pictures but videos not so good.
I got this and another fujifilm ($40) from toys r us and i like them both...
These are gifts for my kind of sorta technology challenged parents and I think it's great for them...
Just have reasonable expectations for the camera and you won't be disappointed.
