Waterproof Case for 302?

guyanonymous · 07-27-2010, 10:41 AM

I've been using a waterproof map protector from MEC (this one)

I noticed a post a while back in another thread mentioning this case: http://www.medgestore.com/products/kindle2-guardian.psp

I was wondering if any of you had tried this Kindle 2 case with their 302. Since it sounds like many Kindle 2 cases fit the 302, I'm wondering if this might be a more secure/rugged choice than my current map protector. It looks like the big round button at the bottom could easily be pushed

, but I'm not sure if the side-buttons line up. I know I'd have to turn it before putting it in (and deactivate the auto-off).

Any other suggestions? I do love reading while floating in the lake...

I don't know about the 302, but I got a TrendyDigital WaterGuard Waterproof Case for my 360 and it works great. I got the one for the Sony 505 and it is a little big, but still very usable. Might check them out and see if they have one that is the size you need.

Thanks for the suggestion - that's the first kindle case place I've seen with reasonable shipping to Canada.... I'll look into what they've got!

I got a TrendyDigital case (made for Nook) from Amazon that works great on the PB 302. It's probably the same one 3dusty got. I got the Nook one because I didn't want to wait an extra week for the Kindle one. You figure Amazon would have the Kindle case available before the Nook one. Just a little irony.

It functions similarly to the waterproof map case I have now....mine's just 2x the size I need so its always folded over...I'd like something that fits a bit better. I'm keeping my fingers crossed I find someone who's tried that hard case on it as I like the idea of the extra protection in a bag etc beyond soft cases.
