This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
I remember getting my first waterproof phone (Z), every port had a flap over it. The only exception was a special docking connector, that took +5v and gnd. And I thought (at the time) "that makes sense, all the other jacks probably can't be waterproof".
Then 6 months later, I was handed the Z1, complete with waterproof 3.5mm jack.
Another year later, the Z3 had a waterproof charging port too.
It definitely feels like these things are gradually possible, if the manufacturer actually wants to achieve it.
