Price
The price has been dramatically reduced since my purchase.
The pantax optio a10 is so popular, it is hard to find and the prices are often as high used as new.

Packaging/appearance
On this one though, you don't have to worry about it because you have to use the screen.
Competitiveness
I had a pentax optio s5 which i bought a few years back and loved it.
Perhaps one of the stick-on anti-glare screens would protect it from sharp contacts.
It just doesn't fire as quickly as it's better competitors.
I had a 1gb sd card and it holds a ton of photos.
