Not Only Dry, But Also Functional

Robert EbsenOP-ED

Have you ever taken your cordless phone to the pool or any other water place?

I now have two of my original four cordless phones. Guess why?

Why did I take my phones to the pool? Mainly to get important calls.
Now, no more cordless phones to the pool – only my iPhone. How come?

Thanks to a SIMPLE, fantastic, eleven-dollar gadget, I have no more worries about wet phones.

The FRIEQ Universal Waterproof Case is a plastic pouch that opens and closes with a two-snap mechanism.

No, I didn’t trust it at first. I put paper in it, held it under water, and jostled it quite a bit. Dry as a bone that paper was.

Pouched, I can use my iPhone just as easily as ever. I can hear my calls, music, and radio stations as clearly as ever. No problem pushing the keys, either.

Now when I’m in the pool, I no longer have to run to the phone to discover that the message is a commercial, or a call from a friend of my wife’s. Unlike my cordless phone, my iPhone almost always rings to let me know it’s a call for ME.

I will have a dry, clean phone at that sandy beach or the occasional outdoors event with wet weather. I will have a place to keep my cash and my ID dry.

I will be able to take those underwater photos and videos I dreamed of –because the pouch is clear on both sides.

Oh, yes, it floats! It seems like such a simple idea. Why has it taken so long to develop and get this inexpensive wonder to us?

I would like to see them come out with a device to instantly diagnose any medical condition. Also, a device to instantly tell us what vitamins, minerals and foods our bodies actually need at the moment. Let’s promote more Science Fairs. Let’s give our creative little geniuses a chance to show us up.
