Waterproof case suggestion for ipod touch

Postby trnsprt » Sat Dec 20, 2014 11:50 pm

I need a waterproof case for my ipod touch. Don't need to be able to use headphones (although that would be nice) but do need to be able to control the screen through the case for stopping and starting a camera via blue tooth. Anyone had good luck with a case/waterproof bag?

Thanks
Tom

Thanks, no it's a 4th gen. I should have mentioned that in the original. It looks like most of the good manufacturers don't support anything older than 5th gen right now. Figures.

I've seen people kite with their cellphones in one of those bag type cases. That should work equally well for a touch and they are practically free--I got one given to me at a bar for a liquor promo.

I know they used to make the 4th gen. case also and I'm sure most likely they still have it.
Try to send them an E-Mail to ask about it :?:
