Digital Cameras

My dad is thinking about getting a digital camera, and I was looking at some, and I found some that I thought were okay:

Kodak EasyShare DX7590

5 MP (prints up to 30" by 20")
Has lots of modes
Big, glass lens (read: high image quality)
Lots of modes
Enormous 10x optical zoom
Includes its own dock
Records on SD/MMC cards
Can take video (unlimited time, 640x480)
Flash built-in
Lacks manual focus
Cannot save in RAW, only JPEG
Only got ok reviews about low-light pictures
Kind of big (definitely not a pocket camera)
Awesome black color!!!
Around $450 at Amazon and Wal-Mart

Fujifilm FinePix S7000

I think this is around the one Nick has
6.3 MP effective, 12.3 MP recorded
6x optical zoom
Records on xD, CompactFlash cards, microdrives
Shutter Speeds, Aperture Sizes, etc. are tweakable
Captures VGA quality video (30fps and w/ sound, 640x320 at highest setting)
Has a lot of continuous shooting modes
Auto and Manual Focus
Noise shows on big images
It's MSRP is $800, can be had at amazon for mid-$400

Can some1 give me their opinion on this?
