Invention challenge...

With all the amazing talent that abounds in the masters swimming world, has anyone come across or is interested in working on a new invention...in ear, wireless bluetooth waterproof head phones. Something so small it looks like a hearing aid, that would talk to your waterproof ipod wirelessly? Or is it not possible because of how sound waves travel underwater? Is it just not possible because of physics? I thought it would be so cool to have them for dryland training even though they've not been invented yet...or have they???? Any insight would be gladly appreciated. I read the threads about the swimman technology. I was just wondering about wireless swim technology. Peace

    I want digital underwater lap counters that are actually on the touch pad. No more of getting somebody to stand on the other side of the pool and drop a stick in the water with a number on it. I also want a digital anklet or something similar(it must be very, very thin and light) that monitors our pace so that when we reach the flags, our current 100 pace along with the previous 100 split will appear underwater on the touch pad. ...the underwater lap counter records your split/lap times so that you could store them after the swim. I can count my own strokes, but a lap-watch would be especially helpful for monitoring your 100 times during a long swim, like say, if you were training for an Ironman Triathlon.
