Is there any solution for ptotecting the HV20 from rain when using outdoors?
I've seen nice solutions for other (bigger / more professional) cam's but yet none for my HV20...

Don't know of any yet. Maybe a large baggy might work in a pinch

I hear you Stefan; I have a PortaBrace (http://www.portabrace.com/) rain slicker for my GL-2 that is so well designed I almost never take it off the camera, but they don't yet offer anything for the HV20. The popularity of this little camera seems to have taken several companies by surprise; you might contact PortaBrace and ask them if they have any plans to offer a slicker/camera cover for the HV20; they might not know there's a demand for such an item.
There's also not yet a proper SCUBA housing, although Epic (http://www.epiccam.com/products/housings/epic-sport.html) makes one which will work for things like surfing, kayaking, etc.

Check out this bag from Aquapac:

There's a thread somewhere (I don't remember if it's here, on dvxuser or dvinfo) where people talk about using this with an HV20 and going underwater.

It comes with a great rain protection (http://www.flickr.com/photos/studiospecialplace/820571322/).
