Mine was in a plastic shopping bag (i.e. naked) on a hook on the wall with my plastic inhaler in the bag. I was lifting the bag off the hook when it slipped and fell 4 feet to a hardwood bench below. the axim fell screen-down.

i freaked out and checked it. the first thing that crossed my mind before picking it up was "i paid $286 to rent an Axim X5 Advanced for six months." luckily it didnt land on the inhaler inside the bag, and the bench was flat so the screen wasn't damaged. the axim worked fine, no scratches. however, my SD card popped out, and that definitely freaked me out, and i was worried it would need reformatting and be irrevocably damaged, along with the SD slot.

Nothing was damaged, however, and it was as if the drop had never happened.


I did drop my Axim a second time (different axim, actually; i sold my pxa250 and bought a pxa255 with WM2003)--that time it was in a Sena case and probably only fell 3-5 feet, so I wasn't worried, but the SD card popped out again and that got my attention. again, nothing damaged.
