Well, P50 it is. Remember reading about it on PopPhoto. I wouldn't
challenge your statement about avoiding it, but since the order is about
some compact (not really, but still smaller than a DSLR) and not so
expensive (one bill, $100) camera with an optic viewfinder, I tried to
increase the number of options.

Optical viewfinder yes, compact no. The D50 is an older Nikon DSLR. I
suspect you're referring to the P50, which should be avoided. Nikon's
P&S production of the last few years start at bad and get rapidly
worse.

Optical finders are dying off. Mostly because P&S finders are typically horrid.

Scott, the Nikon D50 - I think that's the model - offers a compact with wide
angle zoom and optical viewfinder, around $100. Optical finders are getting
hard to find indeed...

LF (well, if Pentax offered any I'd suggest it)

I've been looking at the A series.  I just have to bottle my
conscience long enough to actually buy one.  ;)  Canon seems to be
offering something I little closer to what I really want than anyone
else right now.  I'll keep digging.  There are a lot of P&S cameras
out there.

BTW, I read a very favourable review (5 stars) in the French Magazine CdI
of the Pentax P70. It seems that the image quality is good and the camera is
really small. The drawback is that t has SR based on software post
processing, and this produces a lag between frames when shooting at full
resolution. No optical VF I am afraid.
"No optical VF" is a deal breaker, unfortunately.  Didn't someone
offer a small digital camera with a prime lens not too long ago?
