If you want really small, I'd go for the Panasonic LX1. Superb lens, image stabilization, RAW format capture available. If you're willing to carry a little bit more, a Konica Minolta A200 is fantastic. About half the weight of a Pentax DS with 18-55 lens, about 30% smaller overall, and 28-200mm equivalent field of view choices with a superb lens. RAW, buffered writes, full manual control, etc.
Either is a bit more than $300 but well worth it.
