How many times have you dropped/sctrached your curve?

- Twice. Once when I was unplugging it from the USB cord -it hit the computer desk &fell on the floor. And today it fell of my desk because I accidently pushed my binder when I moved my arm. Thank goodness it was in the OEM case!! I <3 that case. - bought a silicon skin but went back to using the OEM case it came with.
So, no scratches and hopefully it stays that way!

There's a ding in the black plastic on the lower right-hand side. It hurt so much to see that ding that I bought a skin to cover it up.

I used to get invisible shield and cases and stuff like that but I change phones every year or so anyway so at this point, I've learned to live with scratches. I have a few small scratches on the screen but nothing major.
I've had times where I've dropped it and the battery goes flying but it still works fine.
I've had my son grab it with his wet hands after a bath when I was pretty sure it would short circuit something but it still works fine.
The Curve is pretty durable.

When I took my belt off, I heard a clank and realized I forgot about my BB in my holster. I when i got down, the battery and cover flew off. I even forgot to put on the BB skin that morning (yeah I was brain dead). I think the BB flew out of my nylon holster when it hit ground. Well, to my disbelieve; My BB survived. No damaged at all.08-28-08 02:52 AMLike 0
- Mine was dropped once. It was in the holster but the holster got caught on my jacket and popped off of my belt--dropping to the pavement. Of course wouldn't you know that the part that hit the pavement first was the corner of the BB that sticks out of the holster! Luckily it is just a small nick in the corner that is bearly noticible.

Put it back together to find horizontal white lines across bottom of screen and keypad that wont light up at all. Replaced the screen, and the keypad bezel, screen works good, keypad still wont light up. Works fine otherwise08-28-08 05:55 AMLike 0

- I was recently running to catch a train at Grand Central in NYC, I had had a few beers and the sidewalk was slippery because someone had sprayed it down with a hose. Wearing a suit with my BB in my hand my feet slipped out from under me, BB skidding across the sidewalk.....not a scrath thanks to a rubber skin! Bruises all up my right arm were a sacrifice I was willing to make...08-28-08 10:33 AMLike 0
- i had my BB curve hooked up to my car stereo using one of those cassette adapters that goes in to the headphone jack of the BB and the other side goes into the cassette player in the car. at the same time my BB curve was inside my leather holster clipped to my belt. when i parked my car and got out of the driver seat i forgot my BB that was clipped to melt was also hooked up to the car stereo and the cable just popped the BB right out of the holster and it fell right under the car. my life was flashing before my eyes. the corners of the BB were scratched a little, but thank god the screen wasn't. anyway
BB is a pretty durable smart phone, but that incident still broke my heart lol.08-29-08 10:09 AMLike 0 -
- I recently purchased a new casing for my Curve because it had so many scratches on it. Like three days later I was at work and I thought I was gonna have to get a new Curve. I work for United Airlines, in the Ramp. Well, I was exiting the rear cargo compartment on a Boeing 757 aircraft. As I stepped on the belt loader and started walking down, somehow my BB came loose out of my holster. My BB fell about 20 feet straight down to the ground. I almost started crying. Thank god my BB was OK, pretty scratched up, but OK. No functioning problems what-so-ever. I love my BB.11-21-08 03:19 PMLike 0
- Today was the first time, and I am still upset from the whole experience...lol. I was in the Barber Shop, I forgot I left it on my leg, when I got up...I looked like a Pro Football player trying to not fumble...then SPLAT. I was lucky, I have invisashield face cover, and a BB jelly case, so it didn't get bruised at all, THANK GOD!!!11-21-08 09:15 PMLike 0
- Mine slipped out of my hand about two weeks ago.. (As if I have no finger prints what so ever to hold a phone..)
It hit the floor, the door and battery popped up but no scratch and everything was working fine..
Yay for tough phones!11-21-08 09:49 PMLike 0 -

I dropped it few times and even had syrup spilled on it...but it was perfect in every sense of the word. I took it back cause my trackball wasn't workin about two weeks ago. The new one has only fallen once and wouldn't you know it, it dropped screen down on a rock . Sooooo now saving money to get curve 3 lol
