Have a look at the Samsung range Claire, my wife has one and it's quite good, she's had it for 5 years now with no probs re: performance.

I bought my wife the Canon A710 IS which is a little over your budget but I find with its great specification it is a great all round performer.

Yes it does have a view finder. You do not have to rely on the screen and it has such a good lens and zoom.

I know exactly what you mean. That was one of the main reasons for me buying that one, another reason was the six times optical zoom.
