Hello,

I'm building a waterproof iPhone case with small speakers/microphone on the front. The speakers have to be small but loud enough so I could hear them under the shower. What speakers and microphone would you recommend? How would you connect them? Alan

Wow. My one buddy has been showering with an iPhone for the past 5 years or so.

I thought he was the only insane person to do this! I was wrong!

Here's a thought. Put the phone down and take a 5 minute shower. Dry off, put on clothes...pick up I-phone and continue.

Good grief! I mean I've heard of phone dependence, but this takes it too far.

Also, they sell waterproof cases already, but you probably already know that.

It would be a lot smarter to take some Bluetooth speakers into the bathroom, and leave the phone outside.
