RIP trusty friend.

Cause of death - Catastrophic dermal failure leading to drowning and electric shock until dead.

the Coronial inquest showed that Aquapacs have a use by date of about a year.

Ahh Boooo Hoooo

too right - not enough kiting - was instructing, even worse.

just got back from holidays at Double Island point and read this...
scared the $#@! out of me ya scumbag
glad its just your iphone heading to passage with the zephyr now ohhh yeah!

hey been through numerous phones myself...both aquapacs and paquas. Have come up solution that hasn't failed in several years. I use an aquapac that fits my phone and then i put it inside a paqua (good arm strap) but you could acheive the same thing with two aquapacs - just used what I had

Whilst most of the waterproof pacs work great they do let go or take a bit in every now and then -esp if theres some sand in the mech or you take a real beating. by having two layers the odds of it getting in the first one and then into the second are much much less.

the new improved paquas are a good product. but I still reckon you cant beat an extra layer

Mate, it likely wont start 'cause its got salt water in it.

Soak it in metho to wash the salt out and then dry thoroughly.

Welcome to the club bruv!
mine failed drowing in the hot tub, but i don't suppose you'd have them up there hey?

2 hunj odd bucks will get you a replacement from your provider - apple have a "liquid ingression" clause in their warranties that lets you get a cheap one, once.

Apple have a no questions asked replacement fee of $250 for an iPhone.
One of my good mates accidentally had his go through the washing machine, *facepalm* and Apple replaced it no problems.

If you've already got a new phone on a new plan you could stand to profit from this problem. Pay your $250 for a new one, then sell it on FleaBay.
