Not exactly known for its ultra-survivable gear? I've seen Nokia phones fall from a 3rd floor and coming out of washing machines without much trouble... I'd say Nokia's phones are the most durable out there.
this happened in the Republic of Colombia, not in the District of Columbia. hence, you shouldn't call it "Columbian prison", it's a "Colombian prison". You should update the article.
Ok... so the pigeon gets you the phone parts, you assemble it, you call your little brother and tell him why you should NEVER pick up a soap bar in the showers, and eventually your battery dies... how exactly are you going to charge it? I seriously doubt you'll find an electric outlet in your cell. Maybe with the Samsung Blue Earth? altough the place where this prison is located is cold and cloudy as shit (Cómbita, Boyacá), so good luck charging it ... and yes if you hadn't realized by now, I'm Colombian (not "Columbian" :P )
I wouldn't recomend the cat, since Colombian criminals could corrupt anyone, even the most righteous cat... before you know it the cat would be hunting innocent pigeons and planting evidence to frame them. The best solution would be a signal jammer... that way not even the prison guards would be able to sell a phone call.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I just switched to Sprint from Verizon about three months ago for the Pre. Then I went for the Hero about a week ago. Now, I miss my hardware keyboard and am thinking about switching to the Moment. I am still able to switch back to Verizon if I want and get the Droid when it arrives. Should I just trade up to the Moment when it comes out, see if I like it, and if not switch to the Droid? Or something else entirely? Help!"
