i seel these cameras on the weekends, so here's my pitch:
nikon 8700 vs. olympus 8080
olympus has better color, but the nikon has better zoom.
the operation of the olympus is alot easier, but the nikon comes with many scene modes to help you when you want to throw it in automatic mode. The scene modes are very nice...
BUT if you are already comfortable spending this much money on a camera, i suggest taking it a step up to the Nikon D70...

I spent months looking at all 5or 6 of the 8MP prosumer cameras, including these two...and finally chose Canon Powershot Pro 1... mainly because of its fast lens, large (swivelling) screen, known integration with 420EX flash, and lens-mounted zoom (unfortunately electrical, not mechanical).
I'm happy. Your mileage may vary.
