CES, Reporter Breaks "Unbreakable" Mobile Phone

Posted by samzenpus on from the what-has-been-done-cannot-be-undone dept.

ChiefMonkeyGrinder writes "Reporter Dan Simmons from the BBC's technology show Click managed to break a mobile phone marketed as 'unbreakable' (video), during a demonstration at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas." The phone can survive a 10 story fall, being submerged 20 feet for 30 mins, and you can use it to hammer a nail; but it's no match for a British journalist.

    That's not so bad. I'd rather be hung than hanged...

    Take it from me. Being hung isn't all its made out to be.
