Silicone Dust Caps

[smalcom]

Have seen (mostly on eBay) silicone caps for the headphone and dock connector. Is there in value in using them? They're not very expensive.

Depends how you use your iPhone. I run a restaurant and fine them handy particularly considering I go in and out of freezers and hate the thought of falsely setting off moisture detector.

I tried them on my iPad. The headphone jack plug works very well, however, the docking port plug kept falling out to the point where I no longer use it. The docking port plug (at least the ones I had) would fall out of the port any time it brushed against something or as I rotated the iPad and my hand brushed it. But you are correct in that they are very inexpensive and may work well for you. Good luck.

my old ipod touch did suffer from the dust accumulated in the headphone jack
