One of my Nokia phones was on the front seat of my car during a 120 km/h head on collision (drunk driver hit me) it shot thru the windshield, landed 50 yards away from the wreckage and didn't even scratch. Still worked fine.

My wife and I both used Nocia's 5186. A cheap giveaway phone.

I have seen her do evereything to it throw it drop it spill coke, food etc. on it. Still works fine.
After years of CARE I dropped mine on some dirt/ grass and it quit!!!!
Go figure. This made me quit preaching about care!!!

Does anyone have one? Like it?

Do any other carriers have phones like this or only NexTel?

Also realized that The new nextel's have something called Next Talk (different from DirectConnect) which lets you talk directly to another user OFF network. Kinda cool if you ask me...
I had the Nextel i530 in the yellow color, it was a good phone, never let me down, but I traded it in for the i860 camera phone.

My wife has the i730.

No problems with either of the phones.
