Survival Mobile Phone

[dannyday5821]

Im looking for a "survival" mobile phone - what i mean is, a phone thats unlikley to crash or break, specially the screen, if i drop it - but also includes an inbuilt mapping system of the UK along with GPS - but NO other internet services, no facebook youtube blah blah blah - ie, ya get lost, youve a chance of figuring where you are.

highest priority has to be a light - i mean a proper light - i have a K750i and the light on this phone is the best ive found

the reason i want something like this is a) to see if it exists! and b) because i was a phone thats actually useful - i like exploring, and maps would be useful if i got lost - a light is useful for everything, walking in a forest at night, dark streets etc

i had an ipod touch and ive seen peoples iphones - the battery dies quick and the screens are so easily suseptable to accidential damage, which reminds me, my survival phone would have BUTTONS i hate that touch screen crap!

...so does this phone exist...?

You can get it cheaper elsewhere.

Why not buy a griffin survivor mobile phone case, I disagree about battery life on the iphone

"and b) because i was a phone thats actually useful"

I hope you're enjoying your reincarnation BTW :)

Now, now, Chuck - you can't be all cryptic and coy like that.

The Gadget Show had a piece on mobile phone cases the other night. Perhaps you can get a view of it either as a repeat or from the Net somewhere ?
