Default PDA I Can Drop?

Just bought the missus a Palm Tungsten T5. It is truly the business and made me have a 'I should have had one of these ages ago' moments
I'd find it so useful in my work and would help me cut down on paperwork no end. The thing is, I'm up and down ladders, measuring things from all kinds of angles...and it has to be robust enough to put up with all sorts. I'd destroy the T5 after 2 weeks. I need something more robust.
Anyone with ideas?
Thanks.

you can get rigid cases for most PDAs. I've seen a variety for HP IPAQs. Some are solid cases, some rubberised type affairs. Some look like you can take them scuba diving or run a tank over them!

Check some of the stuff on here:

Not aware of any 'rugged devices' though - just fragile devices in sturdy box.

Thanks jbryant, the Armor Otterbox looks pretty ideal Didn't realise there was such a range of cases available. Very good site.
