Phone working like a charm after 3 months of abuse! I've done all the dangerous stuff already - turned on the spotlight, then plunked it into a kitchen sink, and started taking photos underwater, then dialed out, took the phone out of the water, shaked out the excess water and started talking.

Yesterday it got covered in concrete... rinsed it off with a hose on the site, still works! Didn't even have time to completely dry and a call came it - no problems - love it!

POS is more like it. During the first month I had it, the case cracked around the antenna. This was due to a 1 1/2 foot fall from my coffee table onto tile because I had it on vibrate, someone called and it vibrated itself off onto the floor. Cracked way too easy, but hey the phone still worked great.....fast forward 2 more months till 18 july 07, (got the phone in April 07) the mike stopped working. The phone rings, I can hear the people who are calling, but they can't hear me. Tried recording something with it and the mike is definately toast. Some much for tough. I wasn't abusive to this phone. My crappy old motorola took a lot more punishment than this, and I hated that phone. I loved the G'Z one until it died. Got great signal strength and was plenty loud. The camera was AWESOME. However, no workie workie no more. Don't buy it. Not as tough as they claim, and that is an understatement. POS is more like it.
