Has anyone done a torture test of PDA's. How much abuse can they takes in the real world? Being small and portable they are prone to be dropped and put in adverse environments.

My e310 has been droped a few times, raining on, and chewing on by our baby and luckily still survived.

What hell has your PPC gone thru? (and survived)

My old 3630 went down the stairs (2 floors down) once. It got some bumps on it, but worked for another year before the battery went dead :-)

Mine only lasted two minutes on the rack. 8O

I've dropped mine a couple times from probably around waist high to a tile floor. It survived with no problem.

I put my 5455 to the worst test I could imagine. 10 hours on non-stop playing of Barbra Streisand mp3's. It survived, but after that, it hasn't been the same. :mrgreen:

Good lord, man! The horror! The cruelty!

Personally, my Axim shuts down whenever I try to copy anything by Zamphir, Master of the Pan Flute (http://www.mymusic.ca/product.asp?myptr=theiceberg&muzenbr=159194&last_page=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Etheiceberg%2Ecom%2Fartist%2F11624%2Fzamfir%2F) onto it. :mrgreen:
