    I was riding my Goldwing when I felt something hit my leg. As I looked in the mirror to my horror I saw my BB holster hit the ground. That was followed by the BB coming out of it and the back coming off and then the battery coming out.

    So I stopped the bike as quick as I could and turned around. Picked it all up and put it back together. Turned it in and voil� it booted up and everything is fine. Now that is on rough tumble at thirty miles an hour for a BB to survive. The screen did even crack. How blessed I am and thankful for it.

    You are very very lucky, I guess the Berry Gods were on your side. At 30 miles an hour it surely would have cracked the LCD or the window. I guess its one lesson learned never carry your Berry holstered when riding rather keep it safe in your pocket.

    I dropped mine for the first time after only having it a week and a half. The Speck Products clear hard case didn't do its job. It just split in half from a 2.5' fall.

    I am a service manager for an apartment community. My 8330 survived a "pop out of the holster" fall from a ladder onto a sidewalk from about 25 feet with only an oem rubber skin. It has a couple of scratches, but the skin held the back and battery in place, and no issues so far.
    I feel your pain tho, that couple of seconds as the "oh crap that's my bb" sets in and you watch helplessly as it slo mo's to a stop.

    Thank your Guardian Angel for that one...

    Now that the Angel wasted your "FREE LIFE CARD" on your poor Berry, you are SOL when it comes time for you to croak! haha
