Rolf, I know for a fact that the 5100 survived a 9 floor fall, only thing damager was a bit on the outside, but the actual "phone" was fine. Why on earth would you want to throw your phone off the 2nd floor :S
You never know, things like this happen! But seriously my last 2 phones started having problems after heavy usage. My nokia 5210 (spash proof) would not start anymore. I got it fixed, but then people would not hear me well. Something wrong with the mike. Maybe that's because I dipped it in the swimming pool to check if it was actually water proof or splash proof (turned out to be splash proof only).
So I got my bro's nokia 3650. I really dont like it, it looks kinda gay, the round typepad is a nightmare and it take ages to start. I sometimes wonder if windows xp starts faster. Anyway I used it a couple of month, then it fell just once and the microphone wouldn't work anymore at all.
So I'm back to my good ol' 3650, and well people will have to make an effort to understand what i'm saying because I still havent' fixed the mike since it's underwater trip in the swimming pool.
Another thing I like about the 3650 is that you can quickly remove the cover and it becomes a powerful flashlight (relatvely to other cells). But you have to try not to drop it without the cover.
My 2 cellphones before that got stolen.
Anyway, I dont like to invest too much in cells because:
1- I aing gonna use the extra features (camera, etc...)
2- I'll have to always pay attention not to drop it, etc... if it's expensive
3- I'll drop it anyways and break it or loose it
4- Is it's for show off I'd rather invest in clother
But you dont care, huh?
:D
Happy cell shopping
