Getting into photography

I have taken over 2500 photos during the summer vacation. Of course, only a small portion have been successful and worth preserving, but still I have over 500 new photos in my iPhoto library. I have also been quite keen on posting here at my photoblog, which now contains several dozen entries. And I have also published over 200 photos at Flickr.com, which seems to be a quite nice platform for organizing publicly available photos.

I'm still thinking about getting a new camera. The buying fever comes and goes. But I have been able to keep from buying a new camera yet. However, manufacturers are now starting to announce their new cameras, and some of those are tempting. What I need is pocketable, has manual control, and good low-light capabilities. Is there yet such a thing?
