The Attack of the LX3 Clones
Any 4 megapixel camera will do for printed press
Maybe you want camera with wide lens 28mm or even 24mm
In principle, all Canon are good
compact: try new S90 (450$) - very good I want it - check sample pix
A little bigger is the Canon Powershot G11 (600$) - Best all round compact?
Also good Samsung W1000 (TL 320 in US) with 24mm and super OLED screen (cool)
And amazing screen demo
Panasonic TZ7 is a good zoom compact - if you need more zoom reach
If you want cheap (500$) reflex the new Pentax KX is cool - you can get it in any color... in Japan...
Maybe also buy extra flash if shooting a lot indoor (onboard flash never a great solution check camera with flash shoe - G11 has it)
or maybe you can get one of these cameras that can send directly to blog, facebook or email
but you can do the same with a special SD memory card called eye-FI (a bit pricey but how cool is it? - maybe you want the pro version)
