Flash cards for cameras

I recently bought a Canon PowerShot A75 digital camera and I am looking at buying a bigger CompactFlash card.

How can I take pictures without flash?

I have a Nikon Coolpix digital camera. It's a good camera and easy to use.

Can you suggest a camera that either does not need a flash (not sure if this is possible, although if I use the camera on my mobile no flash is required) or the next best option? I want to be able to take family pictures at Christmas.
