Our last phone survived 2 years.  That’s a miracle around here.  The drop rate in this house is a little on the extreme side.  For instance, my cell phone made it 3 weeks before my daughter dropped it in a cup of Dr. Pepper.  DP ain’t kind to a  Sony Ericsson.  And the fault does not lie completely in the hands of my children - I’m a tad tough on electronics as well. 

So after 2 years of constant droppage, our last phone could take no mo’ and bit the dust with much internal rattling.

Father’s Day we went to find a new one and stumbled across this treasure.  And they’re not even pimpin’ it to families of small children.  What’re they thinkin’?   It’s waterproof, heavy, rubbery.  Awesome.  I’ll keep you posted as to how long it lasts around here.  But it’s submersible, people!

Hello, Uniden, for a small fee, I’ll be your poster child.
