"I have looked at his setup, but think I want something a little more
sophisticated with a remote control and better image quality. Its so
hard to
have your cake and eat it too!"

Its a nice setup and the image quality is actually very good for stills,
but the Canon solution has some small problems. The transparent housing
is not good for extended time in the sunshine. The greenhouse effect is
evident. The housing is for watercooled diving. It's also vulnerable to
condensation. The automatic shutdown to conserve battery lifetime helps
but the use of the screen display limits the operating time.
And be aware that the canon S50/S60 does not share the housing with the
S70. The lense has another size.
