Durability?
Has anyone had any trouble with the camera breaking after taking a hard fall? I'm especially worried about mountain biking and kayaking (hitting a rock while upside down), and wondered how tough this thing is?

It's super tough. I've taken some really hard falls on my downhill bike and the thing keeps going. Plus, the lens and latch on the outer case are replaceable, so even if something does break, you only need to replace that one part.
