    Mate of mine's toddler daughter threw his Android phone the other day. Landed corner first on his wife's iPad and smashed the screen. Phone completely unharmed. Quote £290 for repair, cos they actually just send you a new one. One nil to Android.

    Every man can tell how many goats or sheep he possesses, but not how many friends.

      Hardware death matches! Two devices enter, only one leaves.... alive! It could lead to some very interesting design choices. Phones covered in spikes, built in tazers, just imagine the possibilities!

          What makes this even better is that he is very anti apple, and she bought the iPad whilst he was in hospital.

            My wife dropped hers on the cement. The screen shattered into a million pieces, but was still intact. Otherwise, the iPad worked perfectly fine. She took it to the Apple store. After looking it over for a few minutes and verifying that it still worked, they took it behind the wall and brought out a new one restored with all the info from her old one. The one time I was actually impressed with Apple. I'm sure the glass is cheap for them to replace as long as the rest of the device is functioning. But it still beats paying $300 for a repair.

              Actually, she paid it for the new device and gave away her old one for free.
