PhoneArena is wrong! This handset does have a 3.5mm headphone jack!
Phone owned for less than a month

PhoneArena said the Rugby Smart doesn't have a standard 3.5mm jack. Clearly they never even looked at this handset, because it does indeed have a 3.5mm headphone jack! PhoneArena needs a spec editor, because mistakes like this are uncalled for on a tech site.
