Love the new GPS option (on both).
Even though it will be for scuba use, don't see much value in the manometer function on the Oly. (I suspect it's for CYA on warranty issues.)
A significant contrast for me will be the Pentax's "digital microscope mode" vs. Oly's "super macro" mode. I'm WAAAAY out of my league on that. Hopefully many of you would be able to tell me whether these modes are significantly different, or just advertising points.
I realize many people get burned on warranty issues when they don't properly soak a camera after being in saltwater. I'm familiar with those issues, so we don't really need to beat that horse any more.
Thanks to all!
Happy shooting!

If I were you, I would buy what's available now. It will be cheaper than a new-to-market camera, it will in all likelihood take just as good photos, and you will have time to learn how to use it. If you wait until a few days(?) before your vacation, you won't know how to use the new camera and you may end up screwing up a few/some/a lot of your pics or missing shots altogether...and you won't get a do-over.
