casio z750 or cannon SD500???

[Deadsexy]

I'm looking to pickup a compact 5-7 megapixel camera for mostly point and shoot stuff and possibly more should I like taking pictures.

I've basically narrowed it down to the casio Z750 and the cannon SD500. Anyone have any insight to share with me on these? Been looking all over the net and both seem really good and both have about the same price point with the cannon being like $10-15 more. I am leaning towards the casio but the more powerful flash sounds nice on the cannon but as a first time camera buyer I dont know if its a huge difference and worth getting the cannon for that alone.

any help is greatly appreciated

Will you be using it at social gatherings where flash is necessary? if so, then go for the canon. if not then go for the casio. I think you will be happy with either as both seem to be great ultra-compact cameras.

Personnally I would get the S2 IS, but for subcompact/compact camera I would get the Panasonic DMC-FX9, DMC-LX1 or DMC-LZ2. They are all great camera, and they all have IS (Image Stability), which you will fall in love with. Helps with those low light shots, and also it makes a lot of pictures useable. Helps cut those blurry shots. It is a life savior..
