Any piece of consumer hardware I have should be able to survive at the least a fall from my hand. Most smartphones use glass touchscreens, and thus don't fit the bill. Funny how it turns out though, that the cheap plastic screens are

I have a friend who makes a show of throwing his phone on the ground and stomping on it whenever people start to talk about smartphones. I can do the same thing, minus the stomping. Both of our phones were made circa 2005.

The only thing new TLD's are going to be used for are things like googlec.om and other phishing attempts. I find the whole thing silly, but I guess some people like the idea.

This is a great point, but I'd love to see a passcode system that isn't vulnarable. The "swipe puzzle" things (I'm not sure what to call them.)? I've been able to see people enter them once and unlock their ph
