!@)&*!!!!, I thought to myself. I looked down and saw that the back cover had popped off and the battery fell out as well, so it was laying in 3 pieces on the floor. I expected the worst as I went down to pick it up, but the screen was still intact (no cracks at all), so I put it back together, turned it on, and voila! It still worked! I was thoroughly impressed to say the least. I thought for sure having fell that far and landing on a hard surface it would be broken, but it appears as if no damage has been done at all, save for a small scuff on the corner of the casing where it must have landed.

Has anyone else had any close calls or thought they had destroyed their HTC Touch? I wonder how much this thing can really take before throwing in the towel.

lol i can drop my htc touch on carpet and it will fall into 3 parts like you described...other than it seeming to explode into 3 parts after droppping it, the unit is very sturdy..wish the battery back stayed on tighter though...
