Nokia on Monday began teasing one of its few truly ruggedized phones. Likely to be called the 3720, the bar phone is shown surviving heavy rain as well as deliberate shock tests, such as kicking it or hitting it with a golf club. None of the other features of the phone are mentioned in the preview.

Most details are also vague, though it's believed the 3720 isn't completely dirt- or waterproof and so couldn't necessarily survive full immersion in either case. Nokia hasn't said when it expects to unveil the handset, but it does promise more videos tomorrow and may hint at a quick unveiling.
