Rollback Price £39.99 at Amazon. The rugged JCB Tradesman 2 is built to military specifications so it is much sturdier than your average handset. This phone has a tough hardened casing and is even water and dust resistant. Built with the tradesman in mind, this handset has been drop tested to 2m high and 1 tonne pressure tested. It also features an FM radio and a torch.

I would expect a phone like this to be waterproof not water resistant.

Omg, I can't believed they called it 'tradesMAN'!!!!! Sexism in its purest form! They should recall them all like the Clarks' girly shoes for girls! Unacceptable! :angry:

Perhaps you should buy one, then man the phone to complain?

I always have a laugh when some product is promoted as being military grade/specification. From my experience, in the Military (British Army), the standard military kit was usually absolutely shite and not good at all!

Did anyone purchase one & place a Non-ASDA SIM in it, did it work? Looked & said it may 'lock' the phone out? Thanks
