I use a screen protector but don't use a case and typically just keep it in my pocket, laptop bag, etc. I typically take good care of my stuff, and until last week my TP2 had only very minor signs of light wear.

Last week, I was on an amusement park ride that was spinning and bouncing me in my seat approximately 10 feet off the ground. My TP2 slipped out of my pocket, hit the pavement below me (asphalt), and fell apart. After the ride, I inserted the battery, attached the back cover/stylus, and turned it on. Everything was fine. My bezel has a few battle scars/gashes and my screen protector is scraped (screen isn't) but everything is working fine.

Last night, I was climbing in my garage attic to remove some items and I had to flip myself up into the opening. My TP2 slipped out of my pocket and dropped approximately 9 feet onto the concrete garage floor. Had to insert the battery/cover/stylus again and everything is working fine.

I'm VERY impressed with the durability of my TP2, but I think I'll be more careful about how I carry it in the future.

SO - was your post Important enough for a 3.5 month BUMP!!!????

[IMO, not even close!]
