Friend needs a sturdy Smart Phone

My friend owns a landscaping business. He is constantly dropping his phone.
I am trying to get him to move into the Smart Phone world but the iPhone is too fragile for him.

I am thinking about the new Black Berry from Verizon.
He needs to have contacts Calender and e-mail syncing etc.....

What device do you suggest?

thanks

Mark

any phone is as sturdy as the case it's put in.

Well played!

To add to that... Isn't that what insurance is for?

if he wants to pull a arlen spector and come to sprint AND he could use direct connect, sprint has the bb curve. it has wifi as well as direct connect and can sync contacts, etc... thru BIS or BES if he is corporate... its a pretty good size phone ( ihave one and an PRO) and sits great in the hand...
