Latest medium-end, slim P&S cams with IS?

[dRebelXT]

Considering getting one for friend's birthday. What are the current models?
What I have in mind are Panasonic FX8 & FX9, Canon S2 IS(too bulky).
What else?

Thanks.

FX9 looks good for a slim pocket sized cam. its even featured as a cool buy in this week's issue of Newsweek.

Yeah, I have an eye on that cam, the IS is quite helpful in some reviews.
Do I have other choices as well?

IMO, the coolest of the slim cameras with image stabilisation is the Konica Minolta X1.
