Prevent Gadget Destruction

I've seen too many expensive gadgets destroyed in my lifetime.  I cringe every time I see a cell phone, mp3 player, or camera crash to the ground, splashed, or overrun by an early tide.  Today's tech gadgets just aren't meant to stand the elements... the only ones that are remotely protected are professional gear that costs many thousands of dollars. 

Even if you are conscious enough to protect your gadgets with a shock-absorbing case or water-shedding jacket, there really is no going back if it drops in the pool, is covered in sand, or crushed by a rock.  Even those who aren't outdoorsy (such as myself) find themselves thrust into the elements of Mother Nature from time to time.  Nearly everyone likes to go to the beach, for example, which is where I've witnessed most of my gadget destruction.

Professional photographers have special cases to protect their gear from all of the elements, and are even crushproof.  These cases are expensive, heavy, and extremely bulky.  But what if there was a small case that you could store your gadgets in, and afford the same protection?

The Otterbox 3510 Waterproof case enters the room like a ninja.  Our sample is bright yellow, so it enters like a nina dressed as a banana.  It can weather all the elements, and is also a convenient place to drop all of your gadgets so you know where they always are.

The OtterBox 3510 (this waterproof case is the same as the OtterBox 3500, but with "Pick-N-Pluck" foam included) is a patented drybox designed to protect your valuables from just about anything. Take it camping, kayaking, fishing, hunting, or you can keep some around the house to organize your goods. The OtterBox 3510 is waterproof, crushproof, dustproof AND it floats! This is a great "carry-all" case that is perfect for protecting GPS units and cameras. They are great for keeping your ammo dry during hunting season and so much more.

Features: Waterproof tested to 100 feet. Waterproof, crushproof and airtight protection for GPS units, cameras, small video cameras, hunting ammo, fishing supplies and so much more. Available in black, yellow and blue and comes with a "Pick-N-Pluck" foam insert.
