I've dropped my JAM a few times (once on concrete) and other than a
small nick in the corner it's still working. To call for "avoiding these
phones [HTC] altogether" because one USB port on one unit didn't survive
one fall is a bit drastic. I bought a DeWalt jig saw a few years ago
that made one 4ft cut and died--guess I should have told everyone to
avoid DeWalt tools.
