Now that sucks paul I use to go though phones every 2 years if they lasted that long, the last phone of mine that use to cop serious abuse was a Nokia 5210 outdoor it was dust proof, shock proof and water proof and since then there have been other phone with similar features and it ended up dieing from a build up of salt inside from being in my jersey pocket doing 500 kms -/+ a week cycling, not the work abuse it coped getting dropped off trailers or other ware house jobs i did, so you should be able to find a new mobile that will take a pounding it just depends what you want in a phone and how much looking your prepared to do and if you don't mind changing brands.......
