Casio G'zOne Commando Android Phone (Verizon Wireless)

Casio G'zOne Commando, the first G'zOne Android phone. Continuing in the rough and tough G'zOne heritage, the Commando now adds the versatility of Android for a powerful mobile experience. Rugged - with MIL-STD-810G certification - the Commando meets military standards for water, shock, and dust resistance making it perfect for any situation that life can throw at it, from the boardroom to the beach.

And not only is the Commando physically secure, but all of your information stored on the device is secure as well. With Exchange Active Sync you can ensure that confidential information stays that way by setting up SSL data encryption, device password policies, remote wipe options and more. Access G'zGEAR applications like the Earth Compass, Walking Counter, Adventure Training, Thermometer, and Tide Calculator that can help you to get in touch with the outdoors and fully embrace the active, adventure-driven lifestyle.

The Commando features G'zOne's powerful XT9 and T9 Trace text entry tools. XT9's patented modular architecture provides one powerful and flexible text entry platform for almost any mobile keyboard type: 12-key, 20-key, Qwerty, and touchscreens. XT9 also supports speech and handwriting recognition and can be used in any application where text is entered on a device such as SMS, email, calendar, notes, tasks, browser search boxes, and more. T9 Trace eliminates the need to "hunt and peck" keys on a touch screen panel by allowing you to simply "trace" letters to enter text. With T9 Trace, you can quickly and easily glide their finger or stylus from one letter to the next on a Qwerty or 12-key touch screen keypad.
