Re: Waterproof case
 
I've actually had excellent results with the Aquapac "cases" (not really case, more like seal-able sleeve). I've tested my EVO in one, and while the surface is somewhat tackier than ideal, the capacitative screen still works well. With the same bag, I have had had a previous phone (a touch pro 1) fall into the most corrosive environment possible (a brine lake) and come out without nary a drop of water. They're cheap(ish), sturdy, and extremely flexible.

Awesome to know that the phone is usable right through the bag

shappy,

Is the power button easy to push with that bag? I'm looking to carry the EVO while kiteboarding, and I crash quite a bit. Would you say the bag is durable enough?

thanks

I did another video on a table top show I could better show how the phone functions in the case. Uploading it now, but it will take about an hour (HD video takes forever!)

I will post it when completed. However, the power button is relatively easy to hit.

The bag itself is not likely to rip, but it doesn't really provide any significant added shock protection for the phone.

True, but some people prefer a wired solution for the sake of audio and voice clarity.

Here is another video that better shows off how well the EVO fits and works inside the Dry Case: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNStKq4OFik

Thanks, I just ordered it. Hope it'll work with the invisibleShield. And how fitting, a ProPlof reissue? ;)

Ha! Not quite. It is a Planet Ocean on a new Omega mesh bracelet. I wasn't happy with what came originally with the watch and I love the look (and history) of the mesh.

Here are two pictures I took with my EVO of the watch. Not bad for a camera on a phone...
