N95 tuff little @#$#

I have committed a sin. I have dropped my N95 directly onto pavement from about 3 feet. It was not a pretty site. I was getting out of my car and forgot my phone was in my lap. The next thing I know my phone is falling and I hear smack!!!! I look down and my phone is in at least 3 peaces. As the panic hits me I realize that luckily I would be able to peace it back together. It seems that when it hit the pavement it caught the bottom left corner and popped off the battery case, battery alone with the back slide of the entire phone. With a little push here and pull there I was able to peace it back together. 

Once I had it all back to looking normal, minus the huge gash in the corner, I attempted to power it back on. To my surprise I see that beautiful Nokia logo spash on the screen followed by the tones I thought I would never be happy to hear. While this lesson taught me several things not to do it also shows how tuff these little guys are. Thank goodness for decent plastic of this guy would have bit the dust and I would have been a very unhappy camper. Until next time.
