Default Waterproof/Shock proof case

Hi All

Got my One X during the weekend. It is my first Android phone. Before I was Windows 6.5 with many devices till HD2, then HD7 and now One X.

Until now only HD2 wowed me and now One X as well. I never had a case for any phone but this one is so lovely that I need one the least for my motorcycle.

I am looking for a waterproof/shock proof case that I can attach to motorcycle. It needs to have a window for display so I can use GPS and a window for camera so I can record stuff while on the move if I feel like it.

I am looking for alloy case as do not want any of that recycled condom stuff.

Any suggestions?

Otterbox use top make 2600 and 3600 that is compatible with RAM mounts for motorcycle. The case was waterproof, crushproof and airtight. Not alloy though. The also have 1900, but no RAM mounts attachment, but u can get a RAM mount holder for it i think.
U won't see it in otterbox site, but u can still find them on other online store

I almost wanted to buy one when i had a motorcycle.

2600: http://www.gpscentral.ca/accessories/otterbox2600.htm
3600: http://www.gpscentral.ca/accessories/otterbox3600.htm

1900: http://www.gpscentral.ca/accessories/otterbox1900.htm

But all the 3 cases were made for PDAs with sylus, so i don't know if the capacitive touch screen.

Thx man forgot about those. I had 2600 long time ago for my Ipaq. If I remember correctly front window clip's open to use the device. However do not think any of them have camera window but still an option.

There must be a rugged case somewhere for out devices or a industrial device of similar size.

I think Otterbox might be reviving Armor series or coming out with new range of waterproof case!

Sorry man but that is an ice cream bag not a case.

I was hoping for that otterbox armour series but it is only for Ipood devices.

it would appear (from their website) that they have brought back the armor series, only for iphone 4/4s or something, but hopefully they'll expand to other phones soon, can't imagine why they wouldn't.
