Samsung Solid Ultra Durable Cell Phone with Integral SOS Function

Having only recently posted about another '�tough phone', namely the JCB
Sonim XP1 ToughPhone - we now have another contender vying for the
mantle of the word's most durable cell phone in the form of the Samsung
Soild.

Samsung's Solid is certainly not anywhere near as gaudy as JCB's
ToughPhone (unless yellow happens to be your favourite colour), but
still offers resistance to both water and dust as well as offering
anti-shock resistance but, whist we suspect that Samsung's Solid is not
quite as hard-wearing as JCB's offering - has this cell phone been
thrown into a cement mixer? - Samsung's Solid GPRS cell phone offers a
somewhat broader feature set including a built-in FM radio, an integral
VGA camera and it even functions as a torch (seriously).

Pitted against each other apparently one resorted
to biting the other’s ear - which we couldn’t possibly say.

Another particularly nice feature is that the Solid cell phone also
comes with a built-in SOS feature whereby, with a simple three
consecutive depressions of the volume button, the phone will
automatically dispatch an alert message to a user defined recipient
warning them that either you're in grave peril or that you just cannot
quite attain the volume level you're looking for as you listen in to FAB FM.

The Samsung Solid is available from O2 in the UK for fee via contract or
at pound sterling59.99 per month on prepay.
