I finally upgraded to the iPhone 5 yesterday after using my 4s (cracked and literally held together with scotch tape) in that dysfunctional state for the last six months.
And I DROPPED IT ON THE CEMENT TODAY! Less than 24 hours! :crying02: :crying02: :girlcry:
[size=1:crazy:t]Ouch !!! >:#

Ooops! Wonder if it would be covered by your homeowners insurance.

I keep my iPhone 5 in one of those thick rubber cases. I've dropped it several times in the past couple of years, and it keeps on ticking.

Sorry about that. As John mentioned, maybe a otterbox would be helpful.

I have the 4S and I also use the Otter Box, works great and keeps the sand out when I'm at the beach! :cool:

I had the otter box on my 4s for over a year, then the otterbox broke somehow ( :rolleyes: :embarrassed: ) so I took it off and that's when my 4s bit the dust.
I am hard on phones... I have lost many, dropped MANY, left several on top of my car and then drove off, even dropped one in a mud puddle in pouring rain in a parking lot and then backed over it. :rolleyes:
The otter box seems to defeat the purpose of the slimness and lightness of the 5.
Thanks for the sympathies everyone! Yes, it did crack. :crying02:
Did you get the insurance...or are you as cheap as I am and went without it.....? rofl

So sorry to hear this Angie :crying02:
I admit I don't use a case either, taking chance-have one scratch so far w/couple lucky harmless drops.
Yep, I agree with the slimness factor :yes: to put in pocket (don't like to carry purse)...

Maybe a design improvement is in order, shoulder straps in addition to the neck strap? Tough to keep that fashionable looking... :blackeye:

Carrying an iPhone can be very difficult due to there unusually small size. :kiss: I don't find this a funny matter at all. I am very sorry about your iPhone. :kiss: Is there anything I can do to help you out? :kiss:
P.S. Can I have a company car, since you have a few extra now? :grin:

Sure, if you don't mind a 1985 Yugo. You have a choice between rust, and rustier. Those two really drove them into the ground though. :omg: So I can't guarantee their condition. I'll leave one in your driveway for you.
Heck, I'll leave one for your wife too! :beerbuddy:

Guys, I'm getting nervous! :shocked04:stretcher: What am I walking into here? I thought the outfits were only required on 'special' holidays? :embarrassed:
I may need to revise the design of the Epi-Strap. :daydream: Maybe include a pull-down loin cloth? :dontknow:
