UW housing for S2 IS and DSC-H1

[yinghaw]

Hello everyone,

My IXUS II just died and am looking for a new camera. I am eyeing on the new Canon S2 IS and the Sony DSC-H1. But currently their UW are not available. Does anyone has any insider information on the release of the UW housing on both cameras? If I buy the camera now and found that Canon or Sony won't be supplying the UW housing, it will be a waste. Or is there any 3rd party UW housing available for these 2 model? I can't afford to buy custom ikelite housing. Please help!
