Thank you for checking out my link.
I have written three times to expotv.com to complain as my Pentax Optio W60 Waterproof camera review (43 plays) never comes up in their search engine yet my other reviews are included. Unfortunately, I believe they favor Canon. You will find 11 other Pentax models (mostly older reviews). I wonder how many other Pentax reviews are "lost" by their search engine?
My latest reply by their support:

I tried changing the product information internally to try and fix the problem. I see what you are saying and am sorry for the inconvenience. Give the system a day to refresh the cache and the search results might change.
Once again, I apologize. Our search system is not perfect and sometimes it takes some filtering to find your results such as using the item categories on the left or changing the search terms. Hoepfully by changing the product information I have solved the issue.
Perhaps, if Pentax forum folks view my review (
Pentax Optio W60 Waterproof 5x review by beta, consumer reports & videos ) and other Pentax camera reviews there, expotv.com will see the Pentax popularity and fix their search engine to spotlight Pentax cameras - if that is the problem.
Or, as a test, if someone from this forum did a Pentax video review, I wonder if their review would immediately show up in the search engine? Thus, truly a bug with my description (and/or lack of interest in showing my review). To sign up:

Again, my review is not that good but it is unique. The included videos and picture examples are way too small - and, although it was a waterproof camera, I was afraid to really put it in the water, as it is so new. But, it did get splashes and no problem with the seal. YouTube.com has some underwater camera tests.
Thank you again for going to the link.
