pt Goes War Kayaking
"As the summer approaches, we crawl out of our protective wired covered lairs to sometimes partake in outdoor activity. Last weekend, we went kayaking around Lake Union in Seattle, WA and of course, we couldn�t help but bring along a lot of equipment and decided we�d hunt for open wireless spots, this friends- was �War Kayaking� we found a ton, charted it with GPS, Wifi finders and we�ll show you how we did it for this week�s HOW-TO Tuesday."
Oh, this is so not fair. As usual, I'll mutter "that lucky pt" under my breath...

WiFi? Heck, where I go kayaking I don't even have cell phone coverage. What do you do in Seattle, kayak from Starbucks to Starbucks?

Been using that ziploc bag trick for about 3 and a half years now, since my old Casio E-115. I repair a lot of doublebasses, and several brands of strings come in these incredibly durable, water-tight ziplocs that easily keep out the Vancouver floods. When we went kayaking a bit last year I just inflated one of these a little so it wouldn't sink if I dropped it in the drink; not so much that I couldn't use the touchscreen or the CF camera, just enough to float. And yes, I tested it...The 3835 didn't sink. The bags are a bit over-size, but that allows for some flexibility. Letting out all the air and folding half the thing behind the unit makes it easily pocketable. It's sure cool being about to read ebooks while out walking in the rain. Just have to wipe the screen a lot.
