The Canon S1IS is in your price range and the reviews (here and in other sites) seem great. Canon might be thinking to ship an update soon, but there are only rumours and no announcements yet.
If you want to spend more you might consider the Panasonic Lumix FZ5 (Apr-05)(or FZ20/FZ3/FZ4 depending on your budget) or K-Minolta Z5.
Regards and good luck

Hello,
I want to buy a digital camara with good zoom capabilities and Image Stabilization. Any suggestions? I like to go to baseball games and concerts, so being able to zoom in to players and/or artists is a plus for me. I am willing to spend 350 dollars at must.
