Rechargeable or normal batteries?

Rechargable regular-sized batteries. Mine uses rechargable AAs, that way I can have it both ways.
6mp or 7mp? For what you want, even 3 is enough but I dunno if they sell those anymore. More pixels helps with the digital zoom, or if you want to blow them up beyond snapshot size.
Optical zoom or digital zoom? Trade-off between image quality and compactness - decide which you want.
I have seen these, tell me which of these (if any) you would recommend, or if you have any suggestions, let me have them! Not familiar with any of them. The best review sites are Steve's digicams and DP review. FWIW, Canon seems to be the most consistently well-reviewed brand.
