The rainy season is upon us again and we should prepare ourselves for many wet days to come. Thanks to modern technology and innovation, bags within water resistant lining abound for our laptop, PDAs and other gadgets. But what about our cash, ATM and credit cards, and other SIM cards which we usually carry around in our pockets? Unless you’ve got waterproof pants, they’re not exactly safe from the rain. Good thing that the world has Australians Henri Spalle and Mark Armstrong.

Together, they’ve designed Dosh, a waterproof yet very stylish wallet made out of flexible and semi-flexible polymers that result in a synergy of style and function. It can accommodate bills (of any currency which is why it is relatively large), ATM and credit cards, and has special compartments for SIM and security keycards. So far, it’s only available in Australia and some online stores (most of which, quite frankly, do not accept orders from our part of the world). But hey, if you know any one coming from Down Under, might as well ask for this one as a pasalubong, mate.
