Anybody know of any decent waterproof digital PnS cameras coming out soon?

I know of the Olympus xxxSW series, the inexpensive Pentax one, none by Canon or Nikon..

I think it would be nice to have a native one rather than relying on a waterproof case. I am a avid kayaker and so things being waterproof is nice and I have no intention of going below 33ft or scuba diving with it. My hesitation on the Olympus is the lack of a optical viewfinder, it's all through the LCD screen which can get washed out in heavy sunlight and it's gotten OK reviews as a camera....
