Rugged Phone for Outdoorsy (and Clumsy) Users

If you've replaced your phone one too many times due to inadvertent dunkings or drops from high places, you might be a good match for the Casio G'zOne Boulder now available from Verizon Wireless. It's built to military specs for dust, water and shock resistance so theoretically it should withstand some of the toughest civilian users (or abusers, perhaps?).

In addition to Verizon's Push-to-Talk technology for immediate connection to your most frequently called numbers, the Boulder comes with a flashlight, an electronic compass, and all the standard features such as V CAST music and video, Bluetooth, and a camera. Additional options include the VZ Navigator direction service and Field Force Manager, which lets a company locate, monitor and communicate with employees in the field.
