Screens were still breakable by idiots.

EDIT: I had one such phone, liked it. An idiot at school broke that screen. It was a girl, so can't even be too angry.

True, especially with the xPressMusic ones. They felt as though they had slightly thinner plastic. Had one of the very thin ones, a friend of mine squeezed it between the door and its frame enough to turn it into a flip phone.

On the other hand, had a 6303i I threw at a wall to see what would happen and what happenes was an uncomfortable gash left in one of our clasroom's walls. Phone was chillin'.
