How horse-owner friendly is the iPhone 4?

[Arkmiido]

So it's mobile upgrade time finally... Have battled on with my iPhone3G with the horrendously cracked screen and no backlight, so I have been texting under a lamp for the last 8 months of my contract, IT IS FINALLY TIME!
Yes, not having insurance was an error. Won't do it again..
Has anyone got the new iPhone? Is it very fragile?!
Any recommendations of other all singing, all dancing phones that will mind being in rainstorms less than my last iPhone, or me falling off a horse onto it, or treading on it... or the shetland treading on it...
This stuff doesn't get covered by insurance... actually I'm quite impressed the last phone lasted as long as it did

Aparently it's difficult if your left handed (your hand will cover the speaker or something), which could a problem with horses as i often make left handed phone calls so that I can make feeds or something with my right hand. I doubt it's very study either

My phones an old nokia that refuses to give up, despite the fact i've dropped it, stood on it, had my horse try to bite it, and used it every weather condition possible.

I'm not sure about iPhones but my Blackberry is still going after the horse tried to eat it!
