H20 Audio launches first underwater housing for Apple's iPod mini from surf to snow - H2O Audio enables iPod mini to endure all elements. The SV-iMini includes a unique waterproof dial and push button assembly providing full access to the iPod mini's proprietary Click Wheel controls.
Watersports enthusiasts can now take their iPod mini with them while participating in sports such as wakeboarding, surfing, snowboarding, swimming and kayaking. H2O Audio's patented waterproof headset is lightweight and designed to stay securely fastened through the wipeouts, flips and turns endured by today's surfers, snowboarders and wakeboarders.
