I really like the functionality of the Konica Minota X series; they are tiny, and have a 3x optical zoom that doesn't stick out from the camera. I'm waiting for the X31, which was recently announced. Lots of options within the series (# of pixels, sound, battery type) so you can find one that should work.
Also, the Olympus D-line is very durable. My dad once dropped his, bending the lens 45 degrees to the side. He snapped it back into position, and it still works. Later, he was in an argument, and someone threw it across the street. Still works.
