Waterproof cameras

[tommykjensen]

Are any of Canons compact cameras waterproof? I don't mean protected against rainwater but protected enough to be submerged under water.

There are waterproof cases for some of the S series cameras I believe.

Do You have some sample photos taken with the camera in the case?

How is the S70 for "normal" use, You see I am looking for a compact camera to take places where I don't want/can have my 20D. The waterproof was an idea I got because I will be visiting Discovery Cove in Florida in april and would like to take some photos there. I am just not sure if a camera like the Pentax WR 43 would be waterproof enough.
