Marek,

I bought a Pentax Optio W10 last summer and have been absolutely
thrilled with it.  I'm not really a photography buff, I just wanted an
affordable camera to replace the horrible performance of those water
proof disposables.  I find this camera great.  Lots of nice features and
it fits nicely in my pocket or PFD.  I even wowed all the nephews and
nieces last summer by taking their pictures at the bottom of the pool.
:-)

Anyway, I have nothing to contribute to Marek's request.  I just saw
this as a great opportunity to publicly say thank you to Marek.  His web
site is full of lots of really useful information and it was a big
factor in my deciding to go with the Optio W10.

Marek...thanks for all the work you put into the site and sharing it
with us all.

Bill Leonhardt 

ps.  I've had a few Pentax cameras over the years (a Pentax SLR was my
first "real" camera) and I've never been disappointed.
