If quality isn't an issue, then I really like my aiptek because it's really easy to transfer stuff and it's simple, small and cheap.
The two biggest flaws are that the sound isn't great and my friend got a broken one from amazon, so quality control might not be great. this video was taken with one almost exactly like the one I linked. The original video quality is way better than what you see there. I was still new to youtube and mangled the resolution.
But you might just be able to get away with a movie mode on what ever camera you get. These days they're pretty good and don't have a video limit, I think.
As for cameras, I've always loved my canon elphs, but I haven't owned one in years. I recently bought a fujifilm for it's dark light performance. I talked about it in my livejournal. One of the things I love about the canons is they have a all metal body, so it's retty rough and tumble. My first ones were replaced because I was upgrading. My last died because of a switch flaking out.
I really like the reviews on dpreview but they sometimes don't have all pocket sized cameras, though they have some.

Post about what you end up getting.
