Now this is cool. We all know how much Flash memory has changed our lives for the better, and how carrying around SD cards with many Gigs worth of valuable and personal information has now become the norm. However, ruining that valuable and personal information because of stupidity or nonchalance has also become the norm. Enter the Samsung Rugged SD Card stage left.

According to Techcrunch, this tough son of a gun can stand a full day under water! Samsung is also, reportedly, guaranteeing that there will be no data degradation for years. The build also looks to be pretty tough physically so it you can stash it in the pocket (like you usually do) without fear it will negatively interact with the other crap you have in your pocket like dirt, and magnets and stuff. No word on price yet.
