Why even bother?

I own a Canon S110 Digital Elph (got it in Dec 2001). I wanted to take a few underwater photos so I started to look around for a housing for my camera. The only two I've found, are no good:
1) The one made by Ikelite is gigantic, and costs more than the camera does ($500 just for the housing).
2) The one made by Canon (AW-PS200) is only rated to 3m (10ft.) 10ft!!! That's less than the deep end of a swimming pool. Why did Canon even bother to make this housing!?!

If any of you know of any other housing for the S110 rated to at least 10m (33ft) please let me know.

This housing is beautiful - but it's not a lot less expensive than the Ikelite. I know that it refers to the S200, but Seal make a version for the 110 also. You might have to mail the supplier to enquire.

I guess the crunch has to come and you gotta decide how much you want to dive with the 110, which is a really nifty camera.

Thanks for the info Mike.

The Seal housing is exactly what I'm looking for. But $559.00... I'm going to have to think about this...
