I love in those ads too, they're marketing these sleek, sexy, silver PTT phones to construction guys. Yeah right, like those are going to hold up to those heavy rubber Sprint/Nextel phones. Nice ad targeting Verizon......
Funny you mention that. The company my brother works for does HVAC work and switched from Sprint to VZW two weeks ago. They all got the Moto phone in the commercial. With in 48 hours two guys had crushed the external screen and another dropped his from about 30 feet and the phone was done. He said the main problem they had was just hearing the phones when an alert came through. Needless to say they are in the process of switching back to Sprint and reactivate the old i355 they all used before. They are some brick phones but you can baseball throw those bad boys against a wall and the phone is fine.

Awesome story Dan. As a Sprint employee, those are the types of stories we like to hear.
