Overboard Waterproof cases

[pachjo]

Hi, Anybody got any experience with these things b4 I buy?

I see on their web site http://www.over-board.co.uk/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=30_43&products_id=43 that this bit of kit would fit a TyTnII.

But paying £434 for the device I am a tad twitchy re a £14.99 bag protecting it even though the supplier/manufacturer say it is up to the job?

Any advice welcome.....

My brother-in-law has another brand of this type of case and it works well.

Don't laugh, when I go to a water park, pool, or any place my phone might get wet, I put mine in a zip loc. The "snack" size ones work perfect. ;)

Heres an idea from you guys!!!

Buy one , call Guiness Book of records, Be the first to send a text message from your phone from underwater!!

I used an AquaPac with my previous phone. Unfortunately my Tilt won't fit in the bag, or at least not WELL. It's just slightly too tacky and large to fit and once it goes in it's hell getting it back out.

But they do make larger ones, even very large ones. They're great if you know there is a good chance of the phone getting dunked or wet from rain, etc.. I always used mine when geocaching around water or in the rain. So far I've just avoided the situations with the Tilt, but I'd like to get a larger AquaPac sometime.

Yeah, ordered it now.

I want to use it when in the hotel spa, pool etc. Still not too sure how the touch screen will work whilst in but will give it a go :)

Thanks folks

I use the Cochlan's waterproof bags You get three different sizes in a pack and work great. I use it if I go to the beach.

Have now got the case.

I must say it looks very think plastic but I see that it is a good design, but think I will still twitch when using it!!!

Did a test with it and it works.
Even tested it with my Tytn2 ;)
