Which Camera Would Be the Wiser Choice?

I am in need of a good camera and my budget is 300. I recently had a nikon for only 6 months and it broke without me even dropping it. So, I decided that these overpriced cameras weren't cutting it. I am looking at two Canons. I am torn between the Canon Powershot SX210is and the Canon Powershot SD1400is. Both are great I am sure. I am looking for one that takes great pictures because that is what I plan to do. Video is OK, but great pictures is what I am stressing. The SX210is is $250 and the SD1400is is $180. I do like portability and smaller sizes, but it isn't that big of a deal for me. Thanks for everything in advance.

Update:

I definitely cannot go over 300, and i dont want a huge honking camera.
