I actually dropped mine for the first time a couple of months ago. It fell about six inches unto the table. I use it only twice a year, when I travel to see my parents and phone my dad to tell him I'll arrive at the bus station in ~10 minutes. Otherwise, the only reason I have a cell phone is to keep my internet and long distance phone bundle that gives me 1000 free minutes each month in over 100 countries. That allows me to phone my parents 300 miles away 2-3 times a day.
