CES, Reporter Breaks "Unbreakable" Mobile Phone 316
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.

From TFV... the screen still worked - it is just that he apparently cracked it.
Not that you could actually tell from the video.

Not only do those explode quite spectacularly, but the shards are amazingly sharp. I don't envy the person who had to clean up that mess.

Did you actually watch it? The CEO clearly pissed himself with laughter when it happened.
