Is there a camera smaller, more durable, and faster and turning on and taking pictures than the Canon Powershot SD1000?

Asked by ctangent in Digital Cameras

I'm looking at purchasing Canon Powershot SD1000.

But if there is a better camera for me, I want to purchase it instead.  My requirements are 3:

durable - I'm going to carry it around in my pocket or shirt pocket or jacket pocket everywhere I go, so it needs to be able to withstand an occasional drop on the ground (hopefully)

small - since I want to carry it everywhere

fast at turning on and taking pictures - I want to be able to turn it on and take my first picture in 1 second or less if possible.  I don't want to wait 5 seconds for a camera to turn on and then have 2 second intervals.  I would prefer at least 2 pictures per second or more once turned on.  The faster it turns on the better.

Thank you for any suggestions you have!
