OOT, help me buy a digital camera (NSFW)

[Spacemoose]

So I'm thinking about buying a decent camera for a marginal amount of money, something under 300. I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions or warnings on brands to stay away from. I'm looking at this one



It's Olympus FE220, 7.1 MP and has a lithium ion battery since I hate buying batteries all the time. any advice would be greatly appreciated, and as a pre-emptive show of gratitude, ta-ta's.
