How water proof is the n810?
 

I'm not asking this question because I've accidentally thrown my NIT in a bucket of water or anything, but I have come close a couple of times, so I'm just curious how well they would survive should my level of clumsiness fall far enough over the edge that I drop it in some water.

I'm not quite sure. I know in the manual for it, it says something along the lines of "keep the tablet away from moisture"

Cant speak to the 810 - by my 800 faired ok being in my shirt pocket (with the holes up (ear/power)) - and me being soaked in a late afternoon south FL tstorm...

So its a little more than 'moisture' as in the last post - but I'd still keep it away from the bucket of water.

Well I don't know about waterproof.... But they are milk proof! :p

The day after I bought my N810 I spilt an entire cup of milk over it... the it was swimming in milk!! The poor screen and the keyboard were compliantly drowned! :eek:

But it suffered no ill effects from it and works fine ;) Can't say the same for the chair it was sitting on though......

i spilt coffe all over my N800 once when i was showing it to some guy at a coffee shop who was thinking about buying one, the entire screen was covered in a slick, sticky mess (i put lots of shurgar and cream in my coffee) - it took me hours to disasemble it and clean out the muck, not to mention i was totally embarrassed because everyone was looking at me :eek:

You had to disassemble it?! Rotfl I just shock mine off like a dog and mopped it up with a bit of bounty :D

plenty, surely ;-)

lol. Well, at least I know I'm not the only coordinated individual around here when it comes to spilling things. ;)

I use my n810 for geocaching a lot. I've built the geekiest arm mount ever using the dashboard mount that came with it. It's very convenient, but it is also totally exposed to weather and the potential drowning if I loose my footing crossing a stream or whatever.

I've never submerged mine, but I've had no problems using it in a light mist as long as I kept drying it.
