One word of advice; don't get a Sony. Mine has been horrible, the CCD failed two months in, followed by the tape reading mechanism six months after that. I'm lucky my parents bought a service plan from sears for it (something I'd have considered a waste of money), or else I'd have been SOL.
Also, if I were buying one today, I'd want something solid-state, that is, no moving parts. The tape reader on my sony has been giving me trouble since day one, even before it totally failed I'd have to hit it fairly hard whenever it gave me this weird error.
I'd recommend either a camera with a built in hard drive or one that takes SD cards. Those seem like they'd be much more reliable. They may be more expensive now, but SD cards will probably be going down in price by leaps and bounds in the future. Just make sure you get an SDHC one if you go the SD route, that way you can use SD cards of up to 35GB or so as they come out.
