I have a Nokia N97 thats been sprayed with water and dropped many times and it still works fine. Now I try and keep it in a Pelican case.

I had a couple of older Nokias, like the 1100, go through the washing machine and after removing the batteries and drying them were working fine. They still are, though I do not use them.

Isn't it fun working in the weather?  The modern world is designed in such a way that we all need to be carrying tech everywhere, and yet so little of it is designed for wet, cold etc.

Used an Otter case on iP4 and it worked GREAT but the plastic inner case broke.  It actually broke several times with me patching it like a puzzle.  Even added a metal tab to try and keep all the bits together.  Finally retired that case and now I use some cheap batt pack case.

I suppose once the first crack its there isnt much you can do.  Yes, I have a small son that likes phones.

Phone still looks great though!
