H2O Audio has launched its new iDive 300 “Deep Dive” Waterproof Housing and Over Ear Speakers for iPod. Built from polycarbonate, the iDive uses a locking cam knob to provide a robust, secure seal, which is waterproof down to 300 feet. Other features include an integrated microprocessor for push-button control of touch screen and Click Wheel iPods, a built-in amplifier that runs on three AA batteries and provides high quality stereo sound, acoustically engineered over ear speakers that can be attached to a mask strap or tucked under a diving hood, and a lanyard loop for easy attachment. H2O Audio’s iDive 300 is available now and sells for $350.

This an another example of manufacturers not fully exploiting their “high priced” products. When I first saw the article yesterday, the $350 price tag for what looked like a waterproof case, was quickly passed over.
Going to H2O audio’s website there was little description of the functionality of this product.
C’Mon H2O if your are going to throw a $350 price tag on an item you need to tell me what I am getting for the money and show me how it works. It’s not like I can pop down to Best Buy and check the item out.

Hi Scott,
I’m not quite sure I understand your comment. Are you saying that the H2O Audio website did fully explain the features of the product or not? And would you like to be able to check out the item in a store or would you prefer to have a video or some sort of web content that would highlight the features of the product?
