Hi Steve, welcome to the forum.
The SX130 IS ought to be a pretty good camera. It's really an evolution of the previous models all of which have been consistently some of the best bridge cameras on the market. Obviously, it's a fair chunk larger than the TZ8/WB660 range of compact superzooms but it's got a lot more features and is much more suitable if you're really interested in taking better pictures.
Just to throw a couple of options into the ring with the SX130, have you considered the Fuji HS-10 and the Panasonic FZ-100 and FZ-45? These are the most direct competitors for the SX130 and are all pretty new and very impressively specified cameras.
