    Mobile telephone for the Jet Ski rider. YA GOTTA HAVE ONE

    Hi all, and as the season is on the green light, I thought I'd offer up my experience with a Mobile telephone I purchased last October.

    The Sonim Mobile HAS got to be the best thing I have bought in a long time. It is regularly dropped, wet, and tested by the masses that see it.

    I carry this mobile with me all the time on my Ski, and with wetted, gloved hands, I often check in with the management, or receive calls while on the water.

    I ride rough sea at times, and this mobile is always by my side somewhere, and generally is wet all the time.

    I have thrown it across the kitchen, landed it in the sink, answered calls in the shower... and it still works perfectly..!!

    I have dropped it from quite a height, and it just keeps on working.... WELL... They say you can roll a car over it... SO I DID.... 2.2 tonnes of Jackaroo.... AND IT STILL WORKS, AND NO DISCERABLE DAMAGE TO IT EITHER..!!

    One hell of a good part of the Ski equipment. AND ONE HELL OF a LOUD RING too.

    Linki is here.. Sonim Technologies: Products - XP3 Features

    Now there's a competition.

    The old Nokia is as you say, but the waterproof, shock/drop proof side is incredible. We even had it as part of a tennis game last November.

    It bounced of the sink, landed in the water, was pulled out, and it STILL WORKS.

    Actually are quite a cheap phone too, I was impressed. I bought mine having been told a patio construction person in-advertantly dropped it out of his pocket, and poured the concrete over the top. Anyway, he went home, thinking he had left it there... came back the next day, and actually heard it ringing in the slab he had laid. He chipped it out, and lo and behold, he has it still, and working perfectly.

    Gotta hand it to the phone.
