Ruggedizing Your Own Device

We cover ruggedized mobile devices here at GBM whenever we get our hands on them. We’ve been known to toss MobileDemand devices around casinos, drop Otterbox cases in creeks, and even run over them in cars. But ruggedized devices are often too expensive for the consumer. So, if you think you might be bouncing your device around in the near future you might want to check out what these guys at Popular Mechanics did with some tape, some tubing, and some tennis balls. You can check out the video of them tossing it around here.
