Panasonic Lumix. Seriously the easiest, most idiot-proof thing I've used, plus actually flexible enough for someone who knows what they're doing.

Seconded. Ours also makes decent video.

I have the Lumix wide-angle, too. Bonus, the LX3, I believe, shoots raw.

I just got myself a Lumix after doing a ton of research. I'm a big fan of it so far, and a friend who has one showed me her "idiot-setting" shots and they're gorgeous.
