We like:
External casing; resistant to water splashes and some knocks and drops
We don't like:
Entry-level features; no PC synchronisation; VGA camera; small screen

Samsung SGH-M110; Samsung M110
CNET UK judgement:
This is no smart phone, which may limit its appeal, but the Samsung Solid could fit the bill if you need a phone that can cope with dust, dirt, water and occasional drops
