What are some good digital cameras at a reasonable price?

My birthday is coming up and i've been thinking about asking for a digital camera. Im not really sure of the camera i want so can you please give me suggestions of some good reasonably priced cameras that usually last awhile. Also are there any special features on a camera i should look for? Thanks :)

1. The Canon Ixus and powershot range are very good, as are the Nikon Coolpix range, you can get a good one for around 100 euro or 144 US dollars mark, thats 88 in british pounds (dunno where you're from) Don't go over board on the mega pixels, 10 -12 is perfect for a compact, you only need higher than that if your photos are to be printed in large format. The best things to look out for in order of preference are: 1: A good Zoom, X4 is the average zoom, so X5 - X10 is better than average. 2: At least 10 mega pixel 3: a good sized screen, 2.5 inch - 3inch 4: Basic manual options are a big bonus 5: Rapid shooting is very handy, but you may need to spend more for things like that. Have a look in shops and keep the above list in mind. Some camera models you may like: Canon PowerShot A1200 Canon Digital Ixus 115 HS Nikon Coolpix S8100 (this one is about 200 euro, so its expensive, but a brilliant camera)
