Megapixels mean nothing. Once you have a camera that's over five megapixels, the others are pretty unnecessary, unless you plan on making really really large prints. 12mp ≠ sharpness, 12mp = higher pixel density = increased noise due to tiny point and shoot sensor (12mp on DSLR used to mean more noise, however, with current generations of DSLR, noise doesn't become a major issue until you start pushing your ISO past 3200 - Nikon D700/D3 are exceptions to this due to full frame sensors). Lens quality is way more important than sensor resolution.
