That was bad-ass!!! I wish I were creative enough to come up with stuff like that.

Actually we do have to make up a liquid mix called "artificial sweat" and
check that the display is ok with it...

Hehe. I presume 100% emersion in this fluid is not part of any test
protocol though? ;-)
[Actually, being serious now... Does anybody check that mobiles phones
are at least slightly splash-proof?]

It's applied to 100% of the display surface, but it's not submerged. You'd
need to define the depth and make it water-tight then, which is a bit OTT
for a phone.

Yes, of course they are designed for a certain amount of splashing. You
couldn't afford to release a phone that stopped working if you used it in
the rain.

Helpful housekeeping hints:
Check your feather pillows for holes
before putting them in the washing machine.

The scam part of it is that the cell phone companies want you to
"upgrade" a perfectly serviceable phone if the battery gets wet.
My wife's got an older LG TDMA phone - we pay about $15/month for the
service on it (very limited minutes, essentially intended for emergency
use). Battery got wet, and Verizon said we couldn't get a new battery
for it, that she'd have to get a new phone. Oh, and she can get a new
phone for free if she signs a new contract (which wouldn't cost $15/
month, either).
It never occurred to me that this strip might be removable; we ended up
buying a new battery at Batteries Plus for about $30. The one that got
wet wasn't lasting very long anyways, so a replacement battery wasn't a
bad idea.
And Verizon still has to honor the $15/month contract since she didn't
sign a new one. :-)

Scam or safety mesure? Who knows?

Scam or incompetence? Or maybe opportunistic behavior (abusing a
perfectly legit safety measure to earn some buck)?

The truth probably falls somewhere in the middle.

Again, probably somewhere in the middle, though I'm sure Verizon doesn't
like having to continue to accept the terms of that old agreement - but
there wasn't a term on it (ie, a duration it was good for), so they're
still honoring it even though they don't want to.
