Indestructible Gadgets

JCB are major manufacturer of 4 by 4 and farming vehicles. And they have made a single foray out of their usual business to make a cell phone handset. As a cell phone its nothing special really, especially when you compare it to the top smartphones, but it is capable of withstanding anything that a cell phone could possibly expect to go through, and a whole lot else besides. As far as I can tell it's not available in the USA, possibly because Land Rover aren't so big there for their auto's and this thing was really made as a flagship product to get publicity for how tough and rugged it is (thereby helping build the brand) rather than to actually make money. You can get a Land Rover Mobile Phone from the UK by following the link, and there are plenty of other tough phone available in the USA, which may well be just as good but unfortunately I haven't had a chance to play with any of them so I can't say much.

If its an indestructible laptop that you are looking for then the Panasonic Toughbook is one to look at. It's a great choice for travellers as its dust and sand proof so you can use it on the beach without worrying, and it's also moisture and shock resistant, so you can drop it to your hearts delight and it will also take the odd spill. They also have a range of different sizes and specs so that you can find something to suit.
