I'm after a cheap compact digital.

It has to be cheap and small because it's aim is to be used on airsoft games and thus risks being shot at with BB's, dropped in mud and generally means it'll be put in some quite possible damaging circumstances. Airsoft pics aren't gonna need a digital SLR to get pics!

Guess I could also use it on a night out but then I don't have a handbag to store it nicely in

Anyhow, anyone got recommendations?
Under £50 would be ideal!

This is what I have at the minute.

Well it depends on what res you're after but there's this - http://www.ebuyer.com/product/141159 rather cheap at £12.69 so if it turns out naff or it gets hammered then there hasn't been too much money wasted, or http://www.ebuyer.com/product/138461 as it comes in a water proof case it's more likely to survive being knocked around a bit plus you can whip it out of the case for those nights on the tiles and at £32 it's not exaclty expensive plus it seems to have gotten the thumbs up by those who've bought one (considering the price).

Rig 1 - C2Q Q6600 with a Zalman CNPS9700 HSF, 8Gb DDR2 800, 4870 graphics, Asus P5Q Deluxe mobo, X-fi Fatality sound with a 7.1 speaker set up, 320GB Seagate 7200.10x2, 500GB Samsung x1, slot loading DVD-wr x2, Hiper Type-R 580 PSU, running XP home and XP Pro64.

Cheers for the help. I'd already seen those (I can browse eBuyer to as well you know ) but was just wondering if anyone had any recommendations.
