New Camera Time!

[Tim]

I figured out what I'm going to do with my tax stimulus rebate, so I'l be purchasing the Olympus 1030SW.

I'm buying it so I can take it jetskiing and surfing with me, but since it's crush proof I can take it snowboarding and not worry about damaging it.

It's much smaller than any other camera I own, plus it's crushproof up to 220 pounds of pressure, waterproof up to 33ft, shock proof up to 6 feet, and freeze proof down to 14 degrees.

Does anyone have one already? If so, how do you like it? I'm excited to be getting a camera that can take a beating. This could be equivilient to YT's G-shock phone.

Looks like an awesome choice man. I was going to say make sure it takes pictures underwater but I looked at the site and it does. Sometimes the term "waterproof" can be a tad bit vague. Sometimes it means it's okay if it's dropped in water but you cant take pictures, sometimes it's okay to do both.
