Looks like the Canon Ixus i7 is a possibility (IQ should be good, too):

Looks like the pink is pretty bright, so it might not match your (sorry, your wife's) accessories....:-)

EDIT: Just noticed the price, a bit expensive perhaps, but there's also am "Ixus i Zoom".

I think Casio (used to) do Exlim cameras in different colours, too, but I could be wrong.

I guess some of the colours might be "special order", but who knows.....

A bit over budget but there's a Fuji Finepix here that's a bit on the pink side
You can probably get it cheaper than at Play if you do a search but this does seem like a pretty good camera according to reviews.

haha

but seriously if you were looking 12-18 months ago you would have been fine!
Cameras like the olympus mini mju S came in a light metallic pink, and the panasonic fx9 was available in pink in china, japan and hong kong... which means you can get one on ebay. Had a quick look for you but they dont seem to be around any more
Ive only seen the olympus mju 740 but that comes in at £220 which is over the budget you said.... just how much do you love her anyway?

ooh having said that i did find this, but im doubting the stock levels
http://www.microanvika.com/cameras/p...O&PNO=OLY52156 its more pink than it looks in that picture... god only knows how many girls i had in jessops going all giddy when it came out!

There was always the canon ixus i cameras

wasnt a fan of them, picture quality was average, small zoom, small screen lack of features but its small and pink eh
another couple out of the price range

I got the missus a Panasonic DMC-FX8 in pink and it is superb

Was £200+ IIRC but well worth it, the quality is superb and she loves it

[mallidiv]

r you talking in account of windtalker?

well I think you can find the olympus somewhere around... I would go for this one... maybe get it from germany... if you cannot find it here... maybe ebay?

anyway... should I think Of xmass too?

Panasonic DMC-FX01 is available in Pink.
While on holiday in Florida a month ago I bought one in black for myself (as well as an FZ30) a silver one for my eldest daughters Birthday and my youngest daughter bought one in pink...check online for price.
