Also I would have designed the enclosure to open at the bottom to slide the Kindle in, rather than having the seal go all around the circumference of it. Any little bit of sand could cause the clamshell to warp a little and leak. And there are too many clasps (4!) to operate and break, etc. By contrast, most camera enclosures need only one clasp and are good to 10-20 meters. Yes, I DO want to read while snorkeling! <g> Last edited by tomsem; 02-09-2010 at 10:56 PM. |

As I've mentioned before, a very good waterproof case (comes in lots of sizes) is the Tuff-luv evolve aquatic pouch.
It is strong, clear to read through, waterproof up to 3 metres deep and yes you can operate all buttons through it. I have two of these cases and use them regularly. |
