Well, my beloved Siemens M75 is starting to show the signs of a few years of abuse, use and more abuse. Time to start trying to find a replacement.

Requirements:
GSM (Tri band OK, never missed having the 850 band with my Siemens on Fido)
Bluetooth
Ability to sync outlook contact file.

After that, I don't really care. I just need to have a phone that handles the abuse of irrigation work (water, dirt, mud, vibration, repeat often). The Siemens has performed like a champ; 3 years and never missed a second.

It doesn't look like the Sonim (or JCB now...) supports outlook syncing or else it would be a shoe in. Of course if the Sonim/JCB suppports outlook sync, let me know....

Any suggestions on where to look?

Why not try to find the same phone on eBay if you like it so much?

Haven't seen an M75 on ebay in ages; that's where I found it originally. Once Siemens went out of the cell phone business, the supply went with it.
