13 Oct 08 Sonim XP3 Rugged Cellphone
Sonim XP3 is the latest cellphone on the rugged category to be announced on the US. By rugged phone I mean one that is waterproof, can work in very cold (or hot) temperatures, and can resist hard impacts.
With an expected release date set for March 2009, the XP3 is a GSM device with quad-band EDGE support, and a screen display that is resistant to glare and provides a resolution of 160×128 pixels. Other goodies on the Sonim cellphone include GPS, bluetooth, 3-megapixel camera, and bluetooth.
So far there is no information about the price, but you still get a 3-year warranty and a flashlight mode when buying the Sonim XP3.
