I've heard good things about the Powershot S3IS and I've seen awesome shots that were taken using this camera. Some were even published in a magazine here.
As for the Lumix, a good friend was planning to buy one after reading through dozens of online reviews but the price difference with the Nikon D40 wasn't too big so she got the D40 instead.
