The S100 Canon I had years ago had a pano mode that would show you 1/3 of the last shot on the side of the screen so you line up the next shot, and software that did a reasonable job of stitching them together. with a standard tripod it was trivial to produce a high quality pano, and even freehand (which I am very shaky at) it make a decent shot. Here's one I did freehand of a double rainbow and made no effort in the software to make it look better: http://flatline.free-source.com/files/Rainbow.jpg

The current and previous line of HP Photosmart R-series cameras does this as well. You can stitch together up to 5 frames. After snapping a frame, an overlay from the edge of the frame appears on top of the next frame so that you can better match up the seams.
Stitching can be done in-camera or by the software.
Take a look at some panoramas I shot last month: http://new.photos.yahoo.com/ccb_621@swbell.net/tag/panorama. All were shot with the camera in my unsteady hands. I have only found one error in the stitching, due to my having moved at an improper angle; you can figure out which one.
