You have violated Woot protocols by suggesting that accuracy trumps snarkiness.

No overheating issues?

They call it an iPad case, but they use some other tablet in the photo...hmmm, I don't trust it.

Wootalyzer, and many of the watchers based on a similar API, are down, since Woot went down while the Sanyo voice recorder was up.
When the API gets fixed, they all should start working again.

Thanks... you made me laugh out loud!

Well, now you CAN.

I disagree the problem is the case is only big enough for $100b, the profits from the New iPad wont fit in the case.

For your fish who has everything...

I just went in for 3, I ride motorcycles daily year round in upstate NY, I usually put my tablets and other goodies in ziplock bags on rainy days to give extra protection in case my luggage leaks.

Fair enough.

I guess I just had some picture in my head of someone trying to White Water Raft with their iPad.

This sucks!!! NEEEEEEEEEXXXXXXXXTTTTT!!!!!!

I have this in the phone size. It is an excellent product. It truly is durable, waterproof, lightweight, floats, and enables touch screen use through the plastic. I am gonna chance that this will fit my Toshiba tablet, and buy this now.

Say what? You mean everyone doesn't?

I got this last woot off. It's a decent product, I wouldn't ever submerge my ipad with this case on but it works well for when I want to read in the bathtub.

I went in for one, though I have concerns on the durability of the plastic in which the grommet hole is placed. A close-up would be nice next time.

For sure not an iPad! More like an iPad wanna-be

I bought one last time, and now I don't know why. I'm not taking my iPad swimming or boating. And anyway, if I use it I would have to take my tablet from its case. I think I'll use it to freeze steaks.

Seems kind of pointless unless it comes with scuba gear as well.

Actually yes, it DOES float. Here's a clip from YouTube:

I have heard this is a top seller for Mermaids and fish.

My apologies.

Comparison of different water proof cases.

These allow me to use my ipad to navigate my skii boat without worrying about it getting wet. Also can connect to my boat sound system via bluetooth. I paid $30 for another brand (that did not include a pad) but I am in for 2.

Oh also if you put a iphone in one of these you can still talk on it while its in there.

I take it you don't read in the bathroom...got one for the little one's Kindle for just that reason.

Every time this product comes out, so do the Ziploc comments. Well, I wouldn't trust any electronics to a Ziploc bag. The corners break down real fast as well as the seams near the zipper, and they get brittle and split.

There are similar bags down at the REI that campers use because they are built to be truly waterproof for electronics, as well as appropriate for food storage because they don't leak odors that attract animals. Bottom line is that not all sealable plastic bags are cheap, flimsy Ziplocs.

Should have left the Ants game running.

All I want is to read my kindle in the bathtub, but my clumsiness has prevented me up to this point. It is like they invented this for me.

I wonder if I take a dump in the bag will it stay dry

Oh, they probably include a free fanny pack when you buy the iPad.

That kitty is running but not getting anywhere!

your phone/iPad/whatever is touch sensitive works great in this. i use it for reading books on my kindle in the hot tub.
