Since that time I have heard good things about the Canon S400, which I think sells for about $400. Anyone have it? Anyone have any comparable recommendations? Basically what I want is a small digital camera that has good picture quality and costs less than $600.

I have the S200, which is the older, fewer MP version of the S400. Been very happy with it for snapshots. Pretty easy to figure out how to use. software's good. I think it's still the smallest camera out there, and it's easily stuck in a normal-sized pocket.
Biggest negative is that it uses a proprietary battery pack, which means you have to carry a charger with you, rather than being able to buy replacement batteries. NOt a problem for parties, but more of a hassle for vacations. And even more of one if you go to a country with different power plugs (although the charger does work on 220V as in europe, so all you need is a plug adapter, not a transformer)
