Good Review. We were on vacation a few weeks ago and another vacationer's kid kept begging her Dad to please, please take her picture in the pool ... He did not have a waterproof case and wouldn't get within 5 feet of the pool. If he had the iPhone waterproof case he could have even taken pictures under water. The case in this review is the PDA version, but if you chose the AQP-104 it has a clear lensflex photo window for photo and video.

Full Disclosure: I am a retailer for this brand, but just had to share this observation.

I'm not much of a swimmer but at least if I were drowning I'd be able to check my e-mail on the way down.

When it's rainy, I just put my iPhone in a ziploc bag. I've been on a phone call while the rain poured down on me and the person on the other end had no idea it was either raining or that I was talking to them through a ziploc. Box of hundreds of Ziploc bags = couple bucks. This thing with it's risky opening that retains water costs 25? People sure do love to waste money.

Beats a zip lock. Worth the price if you ever lost iPhone to water in past

You can hear music through the pack but there is no way to attach a jack though the case.

That would be interesting if it could tho =)

If this device also allowed you to listen to headphones, I'd be impressed. That's how I typically use my iPhone when I'm near water...listening to music.

I got my wife a nice new iPhone 3GS in November. She has already dropped it in the sink once and into a Crock Pot another time. For a few minutes there, I was beginning to think that I needed a new wife because this one was going to drive me insane. :/ I got her the OtterBox Defender and it's been safe so far. We refer to it as the "Case of Shame" - but this thing is even uglier and more obnoxious.

I think I would prefer the Aquapac Mini since it is more form fitting. Perfect for the beach though and the ultimate way to read a book/browse the web in the bath!

I'll bet you could take a picture by doing the two-button screen capture in the Camera app while underwater. I'm not sure it would be in focus though.

@ciocpa Yeah it could have been a whole new type of article had it slipped.

Pretty brave holding the iPhone over the bath as you took it out of the Aquapac...
