I think I'm the first to baptize my iphone in the atlantic. Long story I'm on a week long production trip and I was demonstrating something to my crew on the waters edge and got hit by a wave that crashed a little over knee height. The phone was in my pocket and I was surprised it had even gotten that wet when I removed it from my pocket. But that's all it took. I probably could have saved it if I could have opened it up and removed battery etc. clean and dry. Unfortunatey, although it seems sealed like a submarine it might as well have a screen door on the bottom and top through those speaker grilles and top earphone plug which seem to act as airflow entrances into it cavern like innards. Apparently it can receive liquids quite effectively.
The worst part was being on a logistically complex trip and loosing my communication for two days. Luckily they had an iphone in nearby Norfolk's Apple store that I was able to get. It took under three minutes to activate and sync. It even remembered my call history!
