    I just think you need a better case, bro. I've dropped mine, kicked it, drop-kicked it and including on the concrete. I've slammed the hood of my Jeep on my phone and drove down the road. Only thing I haven't been stupid enough to do is drop it in a lake.. BUT... I have spilled beer on it, lol.

    For most my hobbies a case works ok but the best one I had made texting horrible. But I've been kayak fishing a lot lately and beside having the phone for emergencies some of the apps for weather and stuff would be nice to have and right now I know if I bust my phone out on the yak I'll drop it in the lake LOL a water proof rugged phone I could tether to me or a float so I don't loose it and don't have to worry about running it if I flip.

    Alot of the field techs at my work love the Gzone. From my understanding it was made to be mil spec for toughness; the field tech are very bad with the phones.

    That's my favorite one so far but I'd have to switch companies so I'm going to try and wait to see which one the cat ends up with if ATT gets it not having to switch would be a plus.

    my brother has the gzone boulder (flip phone). and that thing is a beast. Takes actually decent photos, but its a flip phone so if you already have a smartphone I would look into that rugged smartphone.

    The Boulder was great when it first came out, his party trick would be for him to drop his phone in a beer and have someone call him.. pretty crazy.

    I have a Seidio case on my Galaxy SII Android phone. It's pretty tough, and all the ports have flip covers, including the camera lens. Nothing gets on the way because button extensions allow everything to be operated with the covers installed. What I like, it the whole thing can be installed and removed within about 20 seconds.
