Of course I'm biased, so take this for what it is worth. I doubt you'll get any feedback here since we only started shipping these last week.

The FIX Housing for the G10 is one of the nicest housings I've ever seen for a compact digital camera, and Patima's G10 is vaporware with no ETA.

If I were choosing between a Patima G9 Housing and this new housing, I'd take the FIX G10 any day.

I would go with the Fisheye. All of the Fisheye products that I have tried out are great.
