Most everyone knows that electronic devices and salt water do NOT get along well. Let's just hope that they DO recover it, and find out what happened.

I think you mean they're orange.
Other that that I agree completely with your comments. That deep water, that's a lot pressure. It's completely possible they locate the "pingers' and find them detached from the data recorders. Then the odds of finding the data is near zip.
