Thanks for all the good info/advice, ya'll. I favorited that link to the camera and am thinking about the camera bag too..not sure yet which route I will go now, as I prolly would save money just getting a waterproof case, but at the same time, I spend a lot of time in the wata, period, not just snorkeling and would be taking a lot of 'wet pics'. Either way, it's in my budget to get a digital camera by August.

Canon & Panasonic are both good brands. My Panasonic is 2 yrs old now, and is still as much camera as I need. 10MP -18X
I know its not one of the three cameras you mentioned but we have the older version of this camera and love it.

The zoom is not that great but it takes great pictures, its waterproof to 10', and its really tough so you can just throw it in a backpack or a beach bag and not worry about it.
We have had ours for two years and had no problems at all.
I'm liking my new Cannon Cyber-shot with 10x zoom and a panorama feature.
For a waterproof camera check out Go-Pro http://gopro.com/products/
The Canon is cool but not great when it starts to get dark. We have one and I love it for daytime shots but right after sunset..not so hot.

Waterproof - Olympus!
Nikon for a good DSLR
Panasonic Lumix for a good point and shoot.
Opps..
I have all 3.
Waterproof - Olympus! (great during the day and in full sun, but not so hot in low light, but fun to walk the beach and not care if it gets wet when you take a dip and fun taking it snorkeling) This is my day camera.
Nikon for a good DSLR - this is my expensive one that I dont take on day drinking bar hopping down the beach.
Panasonic Lumix for a good point and shoot. (great in low light) This one works great at night in low light when I dont want to bring my big expensive camera.
