oh right - the screen is capacitive... bad luck :p

If it is thin enough, it will work. I've just tried it. :D

Having N9 on the beach would be a huge asset.

Maybe some rubber "casings" would be good enough

Plus, it protects it from sand.

Nokia could actually waterproof any device if they wanted to.
it does not need to be airtight anywhere. I call this super splashproofing myself because water depth is not really specified.

I checked out the website. It has nothing after 2008 on it. [frustrated politcal comment] Probably this lost momentum during the recent financial unpleasantness brought on by the excessive greed and lack of morals of the financial sector. [/frustrated political commrent] Golden-Shellback.com are "looking for commercial partners only at this time". So, yes, Nokia could have this stuff deposited on devices prior to shipment unless there is some sort of issue with exporting the technology to China, site of many Nokia factories.

That's the sad part, a bit like alien dalvik it's aimed at commercial partners, P2i are doing the same with their Aridion process but we will hopefully see it in our consumer tech soon.

Oh man I sure am glad this waterproof bag with Velcro tags has a sticker telling me it's 'iPod compatible', the iPod's non euclidean angles and such make it so hard to put it in things that manage to hold all my other stuff.

Sorry for brining old topic back (but I believe it's better than starting new one)

I remember there was some water/shock proof case dedicated for Nokia n9. I would like to obtain it, but cannot google it (tried for a few hours).

It looked very solid, got black/blue colour and even got dedicated/waterproof USB port (it worked like a micro-usb port extender).
