Subject: Re: Nokia Drysuits
*GRIN*  can't you just buy one of those waterproof bags they sell at West
Marine for cell phones? Or better yet, for the economically challenged, how
about a zipLoc sandwitch bag?

Seriously, I've had some experience with Nokia drysuits when I was diving in
Alaska. They struck me as a cheaply made Viking. Rubber felt kinda thin and
the seam tape tended to peel and open up leaks. On the upside, if you liked
a Viking suit, but not the color choices, Nokia's came in quite a variety of
good looking colors....and we all know diving is all about fasion, not
performance!

ps: I'm not saying Nokia drysuits are BAD....just my impressions after
seeing 6 or so in use...
