This would be my choice. I think only verizon carries them right now.  They had one of these sitting in a tank of water at the US Open surf contest in Hunnington Beach.  The guy at the display pulls it straight out of the tank and starts making calls from it.  I doubt it was salt but they got pics taken from the phone itself of dudes body surfing in SD.

Just brought mine home

seems pretty simple and indestructable, just my style

Max was tossing it all over the floor while I took care of biz in the verizon store

I'm jealous....on my 4th razr already, they are not indestructable and the crappy refurbs they send to replace them suck also.

only had the phone a few hours

so far the only thing I can see might be a prob is speaker phone seems a tad quiet

but then I'm a tad deaf

and I need to give it the float test

otherwise looks pretty sweet

There should be a volume control instruction buried somewhere in the manual.
