So make sure you have a backup before you send the device.

I note he mentioned they had to solder on a new battery connector after Electrolysis ruined the positive battery terminal. Likewise the headphone jacks would either be not protected or not work. Might take more than 20 days for that to become apparent.
I'm guessing there is a good reason it's not commercially available (my common sense is tingling).

On the other hand you arn't likely to leave your device underwater for days at a time, being more concerned about protecting the circuit board for brief exposure.

Moneybelt is also useful. This way, you have your belongins in one place, while secure attached.
