1. The wide angle and image stabilization of the SD870 IS will really help indoors.
2. It costs quite a bit more money, but for the conditions you describe, I agree that you would probably like the results from the SD870-IS better.
3. Go with the sd 870 is its a better camera overall
4. The Canon PowerShot SD 870IS has a little more than SD1000 but already for $300. There is 8-megapixel 1/2.5 inch sensor, 28-105mm 3.8x zoom lens in a compact metal (93 x 59 x 26 mm (3.7 x 2.3 x 1 in), 165 g (5.8 oz) body. The SD870’s 28mm equivalent wide-angle lens makes it preferable for those who like to shoot in small rooms and any closed up area. With the new Digic III image processor, face detection, optical image stabilizer and other similar SD1000’s features as capturing 640 x 480, 30 fps movie etc Canon SD870 has 3.0" 230,000 LCD screen. Unfortunately, the SD870's optical viewfinder has been removed from this model, ostensibly to make room for the large LCD screen. To tell the truth an optical viewfinder becomes useful for ultra compact in at least two scenarios: when you want to conserve power, and when lighting conditions make it difficult to frame a shot with the LCD. Therefore, it is not a trouble. SD 870 is compatible with Canon portable printers, as well as PictBridge compatible, so is able to print to any printer that supports PictBridge directly, without the need for a computer in the middle.
