Sony DSC-T77 vs Canon IXUS 870

I would recommend Canon IXUS 980 IS over Sony Cameras.
Sony DCs are well-known to be stylish yet sacarificing quality.
Personally, I would stay away from most Sony digital products.
Canon's Digi 4 image processor is much better than most image technologies in the market.
You can't go wrong with Canon DCs.
