Default High end compact?

I need a camera for capturing life... day trips on the motorcycle, scenic views, maybe even some action shots, occasional videos, etc... I have a D70 but I am not enough of an enthusiast to carry it with me everywhere I go and as a result, I am missing some of lifes memories. So I've decided to invest in the best compact or subcompact I can get.

So far, the G9 is at the top of my list... the PowerShot S5 IS seems very capable as well, but I think it'd suffer the same issue in that I can't just stuff it in a coat pocket on the way out the door.

Am I missing something or is the G9 really the way to go?

Thanks,
Jason
