The chi has it right; you either want a camera that has a macro mode, a macro "lens" that fits over a point & shoot's lens, or a DSLR and a real macro lens.
*EDIT* I just checked and a Canon Powershot G12 will focus to within 1cm. http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/spec.../canon_g12.asp

If you think that's high zoot, then you REALLY don't want to know what the DSLR option would cost

DSLR FTW!
Spend the extra money buy a DSLR and figure it is one of the last if not last camera you will ever need to buy.. I picked up a Nikon D3000 in May and it is fucking sweet.. point and shoot $200 cameras are fucking garbage, period..

And what if you want something pocket-size? Not everyone wants a camera bag on their shoulder all the time.

There's a chance it's going to get dirty hence the working on my wheels part. I'm not going to spend hundreds on a camera to be covered in oil.
