Which digital camera would you recommend to suit my budget?

I'd like a new digital camera for my upcoming cruise to Alaska. Something with a good zoom would probably come in handy, as I hope to capture some wildlife on film.

I am by no means a professional, so I want something simple to understand. Also, I don't want to spend an arm and a leg here. Something between 100 and 300 bucks would be ideal.

    Canon PowerShot SX100 IS - full auto mode, as well as manual options in case you ever decide you'd like to learn a bit photography to improve your results.

    The all time winner bargain compact digital camera is the Canon 7.1 megapixel PowerShot SD1000 [not the SD1100 [IS] 7.1 with an added 2- gig memory card which when set in the manual mode for "Vivid" colors and videos at 30 fps in 320 dpi format provides killer images and videos under low light conditions. The macro feature is superb for taking closeups of small butterflies, insects, etc. It currently sells for $140 at techgearnow.com:
