BB pal Mike Outmesguine says, "This animation shows the wave of the tsunami moving outward from the island chain north of Sumatra. Remarkably, it travelled the 750 miles to Sri Lanka and Eastern India in only 100 minutes. Spotted on the USGS page mentioned earlier on BB: Link."

Also, the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration offers a 3D quicktime animation of the Indonesian tsunami here: Link (3.5 MB) (thanks, Rob)
