We’ve seen a number of waterproof MP3 players come across our desks but a waterproof video player has been a little harder to come by. Chinavasion now has a Waterproof MP4 player (for lack of a better name) on the way that allows you to watch your videos in the tub, pool, lake or any other body of water you would like and keeps the video playing up to 3 meters under.

The LCD is a little on the small side at 1.8″ with a resolution of only 128×128. But in an effort to keep our glass half-full, the modest 1GB of memory can probably hold a decent amount of video at this resolution. Not only can you watch underwater but the Waterproof video player also comes with waterproof earphones to listen, too.

It also comes packaged with an armband and neckstrap, and will support JPEG photos, video in AMV converted from MPEG, WMV and ASF, and music files in WMA and MPEG. It has a 6 hour continuous playback time on a rechargeable battery and transfers data from Windows/Mac/Linux via USB 2.0.

Chinavasion says this product will be available “soon” but unfortunately gives no exact date or price.
