“If you are looking for a rugged Android phone this may exactly
be what you are looking for. This phone was originally build for
windows mobile, but nowadays they also ship it with android. And I
have to say, it actually looks nice for a rugged phone.

“The phone is IP65 sealed and tested for drops from 1.8 meter on
a steel surface. This would be the first android phone surviving a
dive in the swimming pool (even when there is no water). The little
friend has build in barcode and rfid reader combined with Linux
this makes for some great hacking around.”
