Have a look at the Canon S90. It seems to be an updated D-Lux 4 with
a a bit wider range zoom, excellent (for a small sensor camera) high
ISO performance, also an f/2 lens at the wide end and quite
pocketable. I downloaded some sample images at ISO 1600 and 3200 and
they looked quite passable considering.
It's supposed to be available in the next week or two here.
