Housing is named Ehs-510H, looks very similar to the housing for the VPC-C5/C6 just a bit larger (since the camera is a bit bigger) this may end up being my next toy of interest since it has a much better battery than the VPC-C5/C6 (much larger 1200mAh instead of 700mAh)

If you have a chance to rent the camera and housing first, do so.  I was tossing the idea around of getting this since it is so portable and would have a back up.

I used one (earlier version of camera from Sanyo and the applicable housing) about 8 months ago (rental)  To say it was a massive dissapointment was an understatement.  Perhaps the new camera is better, or perhaps the camera I used was set up improperly (I did not set it up, you know how rentals go smile )  But everything I shot was useless, it seemed the red filter was ignored and the MPEG-4 compression was VERY obvious.

That being said, if I have a chance to try one of these again I will, because it could be so cool
