Waterproof Cell Phones

[komodo]

About time they made something like this. Kinda expensive though, haha.

Quite amusing, this piece of news. Casio presents a water-proof and shock-resistant phone in Japan called G'zOne TYPE-R and today, Lg presents the canU 502S, an exact copy of that Casio phone. The specs are the same (except for the network part), so the question I'd like to ask Casio and LG is: where did you buy this phone?

UPDATE

LG Telecom to Sell Casio Waterproof Phone

LG Telecom will introduce the first waterproof mobile phone in Korea in alliance with Japan's Casio. CanU 502S blocks its seams with rubber packing. Users can also seal up terminals for external connections, audio output, radio frequency or batteries. The model will cost about W500,000 (US$500) and is shock-proof. It comes in green and orange and has a2.2-inch LCD screen, 1.3-megapixel camera and 256 MB memory.

Hoppy, I laugh everytime I see your posts Didn't you have a flood in your ride? Now a wet phone? Your the "water god"

I'm still laughing at Unicorn leather & baby jesus teeth

[Hoppy]

youl laugh even harder when you find out the reason it was in a rain storm involved me drinking a bottle of whiskey. i also kicked the phone around and threw it up against a wall. ( or so im told) besides chugging the bottle, the only thing i remember is waking up in the bed of my friends truck in a rainstorm. then waking up in my bed the next morning

2 days later i found the phone in my friends back yard

No joke... haha, we certainly have some characters on here. :guitar

[Spieluhr]

that's a nice phone. but unless you are a serious water sportsman, don't see the point.

even if you drop your phone in the toilet like hoppy, you can let it dry for a few days and it will probably work

Wow. I have a Motorola and I get all concerned if a microscopic water droplet is on it

Stupid idea.
How about this, don't get your phone near water. That's an easy and cheap solution.
