It's the ruggedized Samsung a837 "Rugby" for AT&T. It's the Crane of Death in downtown Berkeley, CA. Push to talk technology meets a giant crane. But will Noah have the guts to scale the crane to drop the phone? Find out here!

11/3/2008 9:41:25 PMok, i really needed to see the phone dropped from the crane of death. I'm rather upset. I drop phones from human height level. The renaissance fair test is much better than yours ;)
