UPDATED 2 ABOUT PROTECTIVE CASES
I know that they make little cases that you can put your cameras in. I saw some little leather ones on Amazon.com and some others. I was just wondering if anyone has one and if they could redommend it. I just want to get one that I know is a good one.
I also don't want it to be bulky as I want the case to mainly protect the camera while it's in my pocket.

UPDATED AND NOW HAVE THE SD1000
I'm wondering what speed SD card I should get so that the camera, when taking pics as fast as it allows in a row, that will keep up with the camera when it writes to the card.
I haven't done this kind of research in years so it may be that all cards now a days will keep up, but I figured I'd ask here first, thanks.

ORIGINAL POST
I currently have a Canon A510. I love my camera but I also want to get another camera. There are a few things about my camera that bug me currently.
- It's size - it's not too big but I like the smaller ones better now.
- It's time between photos - it seems that I have to wait like 4-5 seconds after taking 1 picture before I can take another one.
Other than that I enjoy my camera. I know the pictures aren't the best but they are definitely good enough quality wise for what I need.
I plan on keeping my A510 for a strictly underwater camera. I have the underwater housing for it and I plan on pretty much keeping it in there. I am going on vacation in about 2 weeks and would like to order another camera early next week.
Here is pretty much what I'm looking for.
1. Small and compact camera.
2. Miminal time between taking photos so I can snap a bunch in a row.
3. Good picture quality (duh
)
4. Doesn't necessarily have to be like 1 million mega pixels, but atleast 3 (which mine is now I believe).
5. Looking to spend between $150 and $200.
6. I'm leaning towards Canon just because I have never really had a problem w/mine, and when I did Canon service was fantastic. I would like to steer clear of sony as well because I've had bad experience w/them in the past and would prefer a non-proprietary media format.
7. Looking for mini-SD type of memory card.
8. Would prefer that it takes batteries instead of a battery pack.
Well I think that's it. I've somewhat checked out the Canon powershot series but I was just wondering if people have any more input on that camera or any other recommendations, as well as sample photos. Thanks!
