What price were you thinking of paying?
that only appiles to the compacts with simulated shutter noise - however most DSLRs also give you the option of locking the mirror up to reduce the shutter noise.

The quietest shutter SLR ive come accros is the Canon eos 5 (the film camera not the 5D ) ive got a couple of these picked up second hand for a song for use with remote activation up close
