Question Waterproof audio options?

I see there's a pretty impressive looking waterproof case for the TP2, but it doesn't seem to have any means for getting a 3.5mm audio connection out of it (I've seen that on waterproof cases for older devices). So if I want to listen to music or an audio book in a hottub, for example, what are my options? The waterproof bluetooth devices I've found online all seem to be BT 1.3 or lower -- i.e. no stereo or newers BT features...

Re: Waterproof audio options?

But what waterproof case for the TP2 has a 3.5mm out?

I've actually had the aquapak waterproof 3.5mm earbuds on my Amazon wish list for a while... they get good reviews... the problem is I need a waterproof case for the TP2 that has a 3.5mm connector inside the case which passes the 3.5mm connection through the case.

That would be the tricky part, I have been looking around for the last few days for some options without a whole lot of luck.

Re: Waterproof audio options?

I have this, and it stands up pretty well to abuse. I paid $30 new for it, so look around if you want to go that way. What I like about the dogtag is you can plug in any 3.5mm headset and it will work with it.

Re: Waterproof audio options?

I have had my Plantronics 855 for awhile now..
It has taken some serious abuse and keeps working.
http://www.plantronics.com/north_ame...ts/voyager-855
Battery life ususally exceeds the Touch Pro that i currently have.
Although it might match the life on the TP2

I know its not waterproof.. But its the only one i know that has good batt life and is compact.

Guys, I think he's looking specifically for this. Not any random bluetooth products.

Re: Waterproof audio options?

The AquaPac one looked great to me (particularly the armband) until I saw the TP2 is too long for its listed capacity.

Re: Waterproof audio options?

Has anyone tried putting their TP2 in the AquaPac?

The maximum length is rated at 110mm but the TP2 is listed at 116.0 x 59.2 x 17.3 mm... 1/4" too long.

The picture on their website has an iPod in it, which is listed at 103.5 x 61.8 x 10.5 mm, which is 1/2" shorter than the TP2, and the volume of the TP2 is 76% more... not looking good.
