check dpreview http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/ as this is a great site for reviewing new cameras and in depth comparisons. Its US based so you might find that the us model number isnt exactly the same here in the uk but should be able to look it up on google pretty easy and in the reviews they normally give both US and UK codenames where applicable.

check out the canon compacts http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/canonsd850is/page12.asp

Canon sd 850i gets good review and you might be able to find it at about £160 so getting down to your price range

The Nikon coolpix range of digital cameras are excellent.

Easy to operate and great picture quality.

www.dpreview.com as Justin mentions, is excellent as is: www.steves-digicams.com and have a look at https://www.cameralabs.com

Fuji have just introduced a new top spec 'bridge' camera. Asda have the old model for just £99. 10x zoom, manual override and lots of other features a £100 pocket camera won't offer.
