My last three digital cameras have all been Canon I like the interface (since it doesn't suck too much) and generally get on ok with them.
There are a few ranges they do, all of the modern ones should do movies. Basicly pick a range depending on how small you want it and pick resolution depending on what you want and what the pricerange is.
I've got an SD900 I just bought when I was last over there, which is top of the small range and 10mp but a shade under $500. The further back the range you go the cheaper they get. An SD450 is a very decent camera an more like $200.
The Axxx series is larger, don't know if they are too big for you, but generally cheaper for about the same res and have a little more optical zoon (ignore any "digital zoom" numbers, they're meaningless).
I'd recommend going somewhere like Best Buy and plsying with a few to see what they actually feel like and how large they are. Don't forget to get a larger flashcard for any camera you get... but flash is pretty cheap these days (I found a 1Gb SD card for $16 at Microcenter).
