Water Resistant Cell Phone

My phone was a casualty of Saturday's swim and gave me the impetus to upgrade. I got the GzOne Boulder. Why's it special? It rings in a glass of water. A buddy of mine in FL showed me that and keeps his clipped to his vest like a vhf. I've been looking at this phone for a while, but I did not want to give up the PDA. So far, so good, it just doesn't sync directly with Outlook. Kinda spendy though. Best arm twisting price I could get out the salesman was $150

I lost a phone last year in the surf!! Now I use a water proof container. Cost less than a water proof phone. But with a water proof phone you can make calls and not worry about it. It never fails my wife will always call when I'm hooked up to a fish or the waves are pushing me into the rocks. Cell phones are sure nice when your out Sturgeon fishing, the poker game helps pass the time.

Don't ask me how I know ...

Hmmm, I'll have to test it.

I just received my Boulder a few days ago, but I noticed that my particular Boulder did not come w/ a camera.  Does your model have the camera option?

Because I tested it It swam straight to the bottom in the bathtub just fine.

WW: Mine does have the camera and it takes a pretty good pic (I think). I'm kinda excited about that too as it  has a "vanity" image so I'll have a better idea of where the picture is for self portraits. Now I got adapt it to my experimental self portrait arm on the kayak. 

Does it float?

Why did you have to ask that?
 So I had to do a secondary float test and NO it does not float. It popped off the clip and sank into the Willi.  Some Sturgeon is probably making fish porn and calling Russia with it now. Glad I got insurance.

I asked you so that you could determine it's floatability before you ever had to answer it with some story about loosing the actual phone.  I never meant for you to do the real world test.

Oh well.

Ouch! 

A new thought just came to mind along the lines of "do you leash your paddle".   

I honestly think someone should get this guy a phone leash. 

i was thinking. stick the phone in a piece of Pool Noodle..
