I have not had a chance to use in a water adventure as yet but the dry bag has been useful keeping dew off of my Garmin GPS and InReach.

I have found my iPad a very useful tool for enhancing my paddling experiences. The mapping tools, GPS and star gazing aps are especially useful (and fun) to have on board during a night paddle. This bag fits my iPad (equipped with an otter case) perfectly with sufficient room for my Bad Elf GPS to be attached and kept securely in place by the end of the bag. The material does not interfere with the touch screen, a problem I had when I employed a heavy duty zip-lock bag, and the front material is perfectly clear. All the side controls are also fully functional inside the bag. Obviously, head phones would not be useable while in the bag but I don't use my iPad for that purpose while paddling anyway. The only problem presented by the bag is the opaque back which precludes the use of the rear camera, which on my iPad 2 is too lousy to use anyway so why should I care? For you guys with the new iPad, you may miss this functionality, though your front camera will work fine throgh the case so you get the added value of a waterproof camera case! Note that I have my iPad in an otter case which makes the iPad thicker and less "slippery" in the case. For those inserting a bare iPad into the case you may find it a little sloppy since there would be more wiggle room inside. Personally, I'm well pleased.

Worked great using it to keep a Trimble handheld GPS unit dry while still having the fuctionality of the touchscreen through the case. I would get some desiccant packs to reduce moisture buildup on hot days.
