Nikon S710 is Garbage - Lens Cap for Canon D10

Nikon Buddies,

The S710 is a complete piece of junk and died literally three times  
and had to be sent back to Nikon twice with "lens errors."  After  
eight months of screwing around with Nikon's horrendous product and  
simply awful customer service on an obviously "lemon" product,  
Crutchfield graciously gave me a 100% refund and I purchased the  
camera I should have bought originally: The Canon D10.

It is the first non-Nikon photography product I've bought in 30  
years...  (I have a mountain of lenses bodies, speedlights and so  
forth for my "real" gear.)

The only problem is, there is no lens cap.  Apparently the front  
element is "scratchproof."  Well, that's all well and good, but I  
still want a cover.  It seems that a rubber flexible kinda cap should  
be able to hold onto the front lens barrel.  The width of the lens  
barrel is 36.5mm and there is approximately 5mm of "lip" perpendicular  
to the camera "body."

Anybody have some idea of what I might use?
