    Not rugged, but waterproof at least..
    That seems like a nice one. Waterproof is the main drive for me because of fishing from a kayak its just a matter of when not if I roll it. I would have the phone tethered to me or have a float tied to it. Either way it needs to survive a few minuets under water not just be splash resistant. Then having butter fingers like I do it would be nice to drop the phone and not care.

    Sorry its a bit late, but I forgot about this company - Local to Wilmington. http://drycase.com/

    Ive seen these cases in action, while bulky they are great for the beach or pool, where its going to get wet. works like a charm

    I use a small Otter Box for boating. The phone drops into it, and you can't use it. You can see it through the clear front cover, but it's so sealed, (SCUBA rated in fact) you can't even hear it ringing. I figure if everything goes totally wrong, at least I can find the floating phone after the boat goes down, and call for help.
