I've had my WR-105 for a year now with absolutely no problems. It's gone for at least two swims on the end of a tether. It's been rained on all day. It also proved that my new Gore-Tex jacket works when it had condensation all over the lens after being tucked under my PFD for a few hours. The only thing that changed on the camera was they added a little more length to the zoom. How does this minor change suddenly transform a fantastic camera into a bad one? This rumor always struck me as the reaction of someone who buys something only to find there was a slightly better model available or that theirs has been replaced only a month later by the manufacturer with a new improved model. "There must be something wrong with that model I didn't get." Not trying to be rude, just that my personal experience with the WR-105 has been great. If it's inferior to the WR-90 then the 90 must be able to survive a sledgehammer blow. :) BTW: The little IR remote is available separately and is fantastic. When my wife and I returned from Ross Lake with multiple shots of the two of us together everyone wanted to now how we got those shots.
