There's many review videos on youtube, but I think this one is the best.

That's bloody brilliant I'd love to market this in my local mall!

There are many different types of mobile apps and they meet almost every need of every individual smartphone user. One such type is the messenger app. It's not just about the SMS or MMS anymore. This can come in a lot of different forms. In fact, a lot of cheap smartphones for sale have their own messenger apps that are platform specific - you can't use it if you're using a different brand of smartphone. But in less than 5 years, innovators were able to create messenger apps that can serve all smartphone users as long as they have data plans and internet connections through WiFi. Apps like Viber and WhatsApp even allow their users to send messages globally.

Water still gets IN the phone though. It's always been known that you can recover an iPhone from water damage by letting it dry out, but the real problem is that the inside starts to encounter corrosion which is like cancer for the phone. That is why they tell you it is for emergencies only and not to be played with regularly. This is simply a cool little example of what the coasting can do, but the phone it self is still NOT water proof.

Same here. We actually got my companies Ipad's/Tablets done and its well worth it. We use our Ipad's/Tablets in some crappy environments and water/moisture is sometimes present. ~100 dollars per Ipad/Tablet is worth us paying another 800 for a new Ipad.

Ill post some photos when a staff member brings one of the Ipad/tablet in the shop.

Edit... I personally would never submerge any of the tablets. This is just an extra measure of protection in case something happens like you drop it in the toilet and you grab it within seconds. Or water spills on them.
