NOW you are talking...*are you listening OTTERBOX?* I would definately PAY for accessable watertight protection for my 'baby'. After all, I bought the OTTERBOX just for that purpose anyway. If *someone* could come up with a product similar to the bumper/otterbox that allowed access to the unit while maintaining waterPROOF characteristics, I can see the use. I would also think that a tough, slick membrain material would be necessary to have an interface to the screen...

Is this interesting to anyone?

This may be a little premature, but once I get the GPS unit and try my little "frankenstein" experiment with my otterbox, I'll post the results on this site.

This is when it pays to have a brother that's a dentist (high speed drills, cutters, UV-cure epoxy resins, etc.) and because I work in the aerospace industry, I can get my grubby hands on some cool materials (graphite laminates/composites, titanium, all sorts of adhesives, etc.)....

And if security is reading this as I type this from work, I'm just kidding!

I'm sure the zip lock bag will work too, but how much fun would THAT be??

Beside's, with some of the hiking that I do, I don't think that zip lock bag will do well if I dropped my visor/GPS unit.

To each their own...
