Since he works in construction he bought an Otter case for his phone. The 2nd day he had the phone, he lost it. He retraced where we'd been and finally found it laying in a roadway in front of a Safeway store, in pouring down rain. The Otter case protected it .... but we did put the phone in a bowl of uncooked rice for about 2 hours and it still works perfectly. We still have fun asking Suri "how much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood".
