Toughest GSM phone

Hello everyone.

I am doing some research for a friend - trying to find the most durable phone.

He is a contractor and is pretty tough on his phone. The carrier is ATT. It doesn't necessarily need to be the most feature rich phone - just tough. I don't know much about GSM phones and want to make sure that if he buys something off Ebay, it works well on ATT.

When googling, Nokia phones pop up alot. The Motorola v365 looks like it might work as well.

One of his biggst problems is the abount of dirt that finds its way into the keypad and display

Any feedback on these phones is appreciated as well as any other suggestions.

Thanks

Any of the recent Nokia 5*** series are made for rough and tough play.

Nokia 3390 FTW!

One of my co workers had one. I literally watched him toss it into the air, and it hit the floor HARD, no cracks, nothing.

However theyre not available anymore
