Usually a few weeks after a device/phone has launched someone shows up with a cracked screen. So Im just wondering if any one had a unexpected case of butter fingers or slicks thumbs and has dropped iPad 2 yet? I dropped mine but it magically hovered an inch above ground before inpact and I was able to grab it!! Nah, but seriously, I know its bound to happen for someone, Im curious the durablity of the new thin design. Any drops yet? ( Or near fatal drops?)

Just thinking of this makes me cringe! Lol

Have never dropped my iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch and now the iPad2. I've always been extremely careful with my portable devices.
And so far, so good (fingers crossed).

Nope, not yet.. but when I do SquareTrade will be getting a call!

Im the same way. When I see photos of drops or if Im out and I see expensive devices all scratched up, I just shake my head..what a shame!
Im so careful with all my devices, people are amazed when I show them something that I had for years. Also, My resell value and my wallet benefits from this tedious OCD behavior of mine

My Ipad fell about 5 feet onto a wooden floor face down. Did not suffer a single mark. I have yet to drop my Ipad 2 and am trying to find a case as we speak.

Not yet, but almost had it squashed. My mother was visiting this weekend and I showed her how to read the news. She got up from the couch and put it on the seat(!) of the couch! Not only might I have sat on it (I had just gotten up from that spot and was heading back to it), but it is my dogs' favorite spot to jump up on.

Sent from my iPad using iPF

I noticed a post where one unfortunate new owner had a pyrex measuring cup fall from a cupboard, and smashed the gorilla glass near the button. I wondered about two things, why store a heavy glass item over the counter... and why was the iPad2 sitting underneath it. The owner was not happy, obviously.

Durability stories in here. iPad 2 durability?

I hit mine with a roofing hammer, another guy shot his with a shotgun........ They are durable

Damn that's sad! I'm so bad that even though I keep Bodyguardz on the back of my devices yet I still on lay them on magazines and stuff like that. However I don't use screen protectors on any of my devices, go figure! I've never had a scratch tho...( I probably shouldn't have just said that, gulp!)
