Question Wanted: 100% Waterproof Dustproof Case

Can anyone recommend a suitable waterproof/dustproof case, maybe something generic for an mp3 player or a "normal" phone, just something that is a snug fit that preferably I can hang around my neck. I work in a very dusty environment, I wear a mask all day and ear defenders, so if the ringing is obscured it is not a problem, I just check my notifications when I get the chance. I had one for my old Artemis which I found at a car boot sale but it has developed a hole and my pristine Diamond rattles about in it horribly. I am also about to go on a beach holiday and would like to have my Diamond hermetically sealed around my neck in the sea. Any suggestions would be welcome.

or you could have it surgically implanted into your arm.

That is the kind of thing I'm after , but where can I get the surgery, I have tried implanting it in various other parts of my body already, another reason why I need that case!
And MrDerrickC won't it make my sandwiches taste funny after that?

Default condoms

Those phone condoms are called Skinz .. http://www.skins-mobile.com/
They do exactly what you want.. and they are a talking point..

I have used them loads.. They allow you to use the phone normally and are completely waterproof.

Possibly a bit expensive for everyday use as they are supposed to be 'disposable' ..

i have the invisible shield.. took me 1 hour to perfect it... but you cant tell my phone is covered with it.. its truly great.

but not waterproof.. but then why would i want my moby waterproof? over 10 years of mobile use.. never once had a water issue with any of them. I just dont takethem near the water...

im covered for accidental damage anyway.. its just scratches i hate to get on my diamond... and the invisi shield is superb to stopthat.

you mean you've never dropped a phone down the toilet? How hard wearing is your invisible shield please? It does sound interesting. It is more dust contamination than flood damage that is essential for me, unless I get a new job, which at the moment really does sound like a good option!
