Money back at last!

I am happy to say that the return of my Samsung WB2000 was accepted and I got my money back! That does not mean that I am ALL happy – it was a very nice little camera – but with a few small (?) things I could not accept! Orientation sensor missing and colourless rather cold pictures in shade and cloudy weather. I am still searching dpreview forums for other buyers opinions about the image quality – because a nagging hope/fear is that it was just my sample that was flawed! But so far very little from others to go by. The returned money anyhow  means that I will be able to look for a new compact camera (to complement my Canon EOS 550D)  very shortly! Any ideas to what cameras I should have on my shortlist?
