    I dropped it once but only on a few feet. I started to inspect it like crazy for imperfections
    . Turns out it still was perfect

    Nope, not yet! Hoping this Innocase will do its job when that time comes.

    well- looks like i'm the first to admit that yes i have dropped my precious 8900 on the hard.. cold concrete. it's a funny story actually. just took a 5 minute nap at work, started to close me eyes and all the sudden the smack of the curve hitting the ground awoke me from my slumber. i had fallen asleep with the phone in my hand! turns out the chrome finish right above the mute button scratched just enough to see the black.
    point of this story- don't fall asleep at work

    I dropped mine just this saturday on concrete actually. I was getting out of a car and I caught my foot in the seatbelt and fell on my face! My 8900 bounced off of the concrete and landed (it had a silicon skin) but it was totally fine!

    Oh yeah. During the first couple of weeks, slipped on some ice while messing around on mine, and it hit the pavement. Screen and everything is fine but got a crappy chip at the bottom now. Scratched easier than I thought but then again it is chrome!

    The true lesson here is not to drop the Blackberry while taking a nap at work. Science proves that a midday nap drastically improves your performance. You are doing your company a service by taking a nap....just put the Berry down first.

    i dropped mine drinking and dancing. it has a little tiny scratch on the chrome bezel. i cant lie i was devestated.

    then i dropped it getting ready one day on my hardwood floors and the battery door popped out. i was really annoyed with that i was surprised how easy it came off.

    Has anyone ever fallen and dropped their BB at the same time...and then worry more about the BB than yourself after the fall? haha

    When I fell saturday, I scraped my arm and bruised my knee. Now, it really hurts, my friends were like "omg are you okay??" and I'm like "OMG MY PHONE #@$%?!" despite it having no scratches.

    Of course, my friends aren't Crackberry heads and they just have Razrs...they totally don't get it!
