SD300 underwater case

Anyone have any experience with Canon's underwater cases for their digicams? I'm looking at buying one for my SD300.

I don't care about taking professional quality underwater photos, i mostly want this to keep sand, rain, and ocean spray away from my camera, and taking underwater shots when snorkling is a bonus.

I seem to remember someone making a case that's good to more than 10 feet, which would be nice, but i can't find it.

Worth the money? Is that a reputable site?

How about this one?

My friend has one for his Canon S70 and takes it Scuba diving all the time.

He loves it.

Canon makes their own underwater housings.

They're not cheap though. I did a quick look on B&H and they run anywhere from $260 to nearly $3K.

Linkage to D70 housings @ B&H
