re-buy fuji f70exr or something else?

[amandarg]

Hi, I bought my mother a fujifilm f70exr last year because she wanted a simple point and shoot with a good zooming power and then she fell into the ocean with the camera last week. So long story short she needs a new camera. She said she liked the camera as it was easy to use and took decent photos. Is there anything else on the market that's better and not a really expensive camera? I'm looking at cameras in the $200-$250 price range still.

Thanks,
Amanda

Something waterproof. Olympus, Panasonic, and Sony make them. You can get the older Olympus models quite cheap on Amazon on usually.
