I am looking for a simple, lightweight, water resistant point and shoot digital camera. Can anyone recommend one?

Pentax Optio Wpi I have the 5 mp but now there is a 6mp. Great camera, light, easy to use. See a detailed review at Optio

Has pentax optio WPi been replaced with a newer model that has a new designation. I could not find the WPi on the pentax website.

Their newest in the waterproof series is the Optio W20 (7Mp); also the Optio W10 (6Mp).

Look at the Olympus Stylus 720SW. It is fully waterproof to 10 feet (no time limit), and shock proof to drops up to five feet. The body is all metal. I just got mine for Christmas, but I have been happy with it so far.
