I finally did it. After all the research between the olympus wproof camera and
the optio w60, I decided on the optio. I hope I bought it from a decent online
store. It has a five star rating and good feedback that is why I went with this
company. It is called Techondigital.com. It went for 195.00 plus 8.49 shipping.

Dude, that store has a HORRIBLE reputation.  You need to CANCEL your order ASAP... call your credit card company and cancel the charge... there is a reason why they are selling you that camera for $100 less than everybody else... do a quick google search on their name...

the camera you ordered is a grey market camera and it will not have any warrenty in the USA, and liklely won't have any accessories either, or a manual.  If you do go with them, by the time you get the battery, manual, etc... you will have spent more than if you just got the camera at amazon.com.

My W30 barely survived the first shock experience  severa months ago (as well as Pentax Support) and finaly died after a second shock. I replaced it with the Olympus Stylus 1030 SW.

If you do not have the camera yet my guess is that you won't. You will get a call or email saying that it is on back order. Then if you do not buy all the upgrades they try to sell you then the camera will never be in stock.
Backcountry is right about gray market too.
There are no deals like that on the real thing.

My heart just drop after hearing what Backcountry had to say about the
company I had done business with. I phoned my visa first thing to put a
stop to the transaction. Thanks for the heads up Backcountry. I really
appreciate it.
