I'm a big supporter of the Windows Mobile 5 platform and I've had only
nice things to say about HTC products up until this point, but today a
dropped my Cingular 2125 about four feet from my hand to the kitchen
floor (tile) and while all the features of the phone work fine, the
mini-USB port stopped working, the phone no longer syncs with
ActiveSync, making it generally useless beyond its basic phone
functions

So if you purchase a 2125, 8125, 3125 (these are the HTC
SmartPhones/Pocket PCs) I highly recommend warranty replacement
coverage, or avoiding these phones altogether. If a product breaks on a
four foot fall, they are essentially more fragile as glass.

Sure, I was responsible for droping it and had it suffered a few
impacts I'd feel a bit different, but to me for the product to break on
a single impact this easily, I would say it doesn't meet the quality
standards I would have expected, if you feel the same way I would avoid
HTC products.
