> I doubt that anyone has made a waterproof cell phone due to lack of
demand.

Aquapac makes a series of waterproof pouches, including ones made
specifically for cell phones, pagers, and marine radios. They are the best
waterproof bags I have found (much better than the ones at West Marine.) I
still recommend multiple layers, though.

Here's Aquapac's info:
