Check out the new Canon A510/A520 . They are the successors to the Canon A75/85.
It is >10% smaller in size, >20% lighter and uses only 2 AA size batteries with no loss in battery performance due to their switch from CF card to SD/MMC card.
It has just been launched and mine works exactly as I expected it to and I see this as the hit digital camera product for 2005.

Brett,
Based on my Powershot S60 experience, I would strongly recommend the S70 - especially if you like to use wide angle lenses. The S60/S70 have a 28mm-100mm equivalent lens. I use mine at 28mm for many of my street photographs, in fact I find myself using other focal lengths very little. The fact that this camera offers the 28mm lens equivalent was one of the reasons I picked the camera. However, the other features are also exceptional and I find the flash pre-exposure very useful.
