New treatment can totally waterproof your BlackBerry

What would you pay to have the inside and outside of your device coated in a nonconductive polymer to make it impervious to water, oil, dirt and pretty much any other synthetic liquids? $50-$75? Yeah that sounds about right. Meet the Golden Shellback. While it might not be ready for another 4-6 months until distribution methods are in place, I am rip-rearing to give this a shot. Go figure a bunch of maritimers sponsored a project like this - totally awesome, and combined with an OtterBox, it could easily turn your BlackBerry into one helluva rugged handheld.

    I’ve read about this. I think they’ll start using it on everything including blackberrys when you buy them. This will rock!
