What he said. I don't know about you but it has been more than once that I have seen my phone sloshing around in seawater on deck. I get the cheapest POS phone and it works as good as my sons I-phone. Yeah it doesn't have fart sounds or beer drinking screens or a wanna-be GPS app, but I can retrieve a number for someone a lot easier than any iphone user can. Ask an I phoner for someones number...they peck at the screen for while before they get it. I scroll down the list in seconds with one push.
Also, those phones are not covered if they get wet...There is a small moisture sensitive dot in side and it changes color if moisture was ever present. If they open it up and it is pink, sorry, your %$%$%$%$outofluck. This thing will turn pink on a trip to the beach, it does not have to get wet to crap out.
Plastic bags? good luck with that too. You will need extended coverage contract. IMO they are not worth the added 30/mo + all the fees. It's marketing genius though, they have created a cult for these things. I still think it is a toy that is percieved as some kind of middle class status symbol. My kids wanted them for a christmas gift...WTF?
