I'm looking for a good waterproof tablet... mainly for watching porn and writing down ideas in the bath. Specs don't have to be hella nice, I just want something with a reasonably high resolution display that won't slow down too much when confronted with streaming video. It would also be cool if I could control my desktop with it through VNC, or even better RDP, but eh.

Any recommendations? I'd rather avoid getting an iPad if I can.

It can be just a normal tablet with good waterproof cases available for it too. I'm not that picky.

OK, I've put some more thought into it, and what I'm looking for is something that can at least keep up with, or outpace my Galaxy S3. This means

>1.5GHz dual core or better
>2GB of ram or more
>720p display or better
>Able to run Cyanogenmod 12.1 or higher
>Affordable (around $200 CAD)

And of course, it should also either be waterproof and submersible, or have a case available for it that is. If it needs a case, I'll need to be able to access any device buttons through it. As for size, I'm not 100% sure, but something 7-10" should be good.

Pic related is what I was looking at until I realized it didn't have any dedicated waterproof cases available, and that it won't run the latest Cyanogenmod.

I've seen special waterproof bags just for this purpose, but for phone sizes. It'd be cool if there were laptop bags so I could just throw my thinkpad in there, but it would probably cause a heat problem.

i put my tablet in a leakproof ziploc bag and use it in the shower

How the crap do you use the screen?

Capacitative touchscreens work through plastic films, anon.

If they didn't, all these "screen protectors" would make the screens unusable.

Heh, and I thought this whole time they had like a special conductive coating on the inner side, since plastic is normally an electrical insulator.
