Who says you can't balance work with pleasure? Certainly not the folks at Otter Products.

Who says you can't balance work with pleasure? Certainly not the folks at Otter Products. That's why their line of heavy-duty waterproof boxes ($10-$50) includes a wide range of sizes and shapes that are perfectly suited for a marine environment. They've gotten particularly clever in two areas: PDAs (Palm Pilots, etc.) and cigars. In the case of the cigars, the seal is tight enough that properly humidified stogies will stay that way until you're ready to fire them up. As for personal electronics, Otter's Armor line has you covered. You can use your PDA normally while it's in the case, and there's a write-through screen and an easy-access stylus holder. The only potential problem is found while turning on a Palm Pilot III. That unit's "on" button is at the very edge of the screen, and requires enough pressure that it slightly indents the edge of the plastic cover, which may, in extreme conditions, allow moisture to seep in. However, Otter Box is so confident in the products that it offers a lifetime guarantee. - Woody Thomas
