San Diego, CA - June 13, 2006 – H2O Audio, the leading provider of waterproof housings and headsets for Apple iPod and other mp3 players, announced today that its new H2O Audio housing for iPod (with video), is now shipping. The new housing joins H2O Audio’s proven and globally popular line of adventure sport and outdoor recreation iPod player accessory solutions.

H2O Audio for iPod’s debut received an enthusiastic reception at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, NV, generating excitement in both the media and reseller communities. Following last year’s successful launch of its SV and DV product lines, and in response to tremendous consumer demand, H2O Audio has developed the new next generation iPod housing and is now shipping the product.

The new H2O Audio for iPod features patented engineering and design that provides absolute waterproof protection for 5th generation iPod (with video) owners. The new H2O Audio housing protects the iPod’s video screen from any scratches or abrasions, so the user can always enjoy a clear video image without annoying marks or screen interference. It’s an ideal solution regardless of outdoor conditions or recreational activities.

“With the introduction of its 5th generation iPod, Apple once again demonstrates why it has such market share dominance. The 30 and 60GB models are slimmer and lighter than any previous model and with storage for up to 15,000 songs, 25,000 photos or 150 hours of video these are the hottest players yet,” said Kristian Rauhala, CEO of H2O Audio.
