Next You Want to Take Your Phone to the Bathtub…

“ A third of the new Japanese phones are waterproof now this summer. Not for the beach – to use in the bathtub and shower – because of course once you start to use that 'mobile internet' you mentioned before – the Japanese invented that in 1999 and have been surfing the mobile web now for more than a decade – next you want to take your phone to the bathtub to listen to music, play a game, surf the web – or just have the phone there in case a call or message arrives. But traditional phones don't take kindly to falling into the tub by accident and drowing in water. Yes, a third of Japanese phones this summer offer waterproofing for bathtub and shower use. ”
