Another pretty good deal: The Nikon S1 mirrorless camera and 11-27.5mm lens for $149.
 
This is not quite up to par with the Sony or Micro 4/3 mirrorless cameras (the sensor is slightly smaller), but will beat any regular point and shoot hands down in every way (other than size, of course). The Nikon mirrorlesses are considered to have the fastest focus performance of any camera out there – this particular model could shoot up to 15 frames per second while maintaining autofocus. For comparision, the Sony mirrorlesses go up to 10-12 frames per second, a regular DSLR is 3-4.5, and most P&Ss are only 1-2. This camera is a great option for kids or sports.
 
Red only, and also includes a free Nikon case. The 11-27.5 lens is similar in range to the more common 18-55 or 16-50 lenses, meaning it’s a good, useful standard range.

At this price anyone buying a P&S should seriously consider this camera.

ETA: Get an additional 5% off if you use the B&H app and Google Checkout - the total would be $137.

Free iTunes download of the latest edition of NPhoto magazine – if you have a Nikon you could find it quite interesting.

Even better deal than last week’s (which is still alive BTW):
 
Sony a6000, 16-50mm lens, 55-210mm lens, $50 B&H gift card, 16GB SD card, and shoulder bag for $746 (reg. value of all this is over $1200).
 
This means that after the GC you’re getting the telephoto lens for only $98 more than the Amazon deal – a lens which normally costs $350.

b&h has the a5000 bundled with the 55-210 lens for 446 (lens is $200 off) - that good deal too?

Panasonic GF6 mirrorless camera and 14-42mm lens for $349.
 
Use code GF64U for $100 off the regular price of $449.
 
Panasonic is also currently offering an 2 year warranty instead of the standard 1 year (see PDF for details).
 
-16 megapixels
-3.0” touch screen with 180˚ rotation
-Wi-Fi and NFC
-Full 1080p video
 
This differs from the Sony mirrorlesses mainly by the mount – it uses the far more common Micro 4/3 system, which has far more – and cheaper – lenses availible that the sony. There is also a tremendous used market for these lenses, so building a real system is a relitive bargain. The sensor is a bit smaller than the Sony’s, but the image quality is more or less equal (the Sony will have a very slight edge in low light).

Let's clarify an important point - for 99% of people here the Sony a5000 is a better and cheaper camera. But if you're interested in seriously growing your lens set the Panasonic is worth a look.

Why has it been so cheap? For so long?

I keep thinking I should grab one to replace my sisters nex 5N I got her used.
What are the major improvements?
