If that new Apple tablet is anything remotely close to the iPhone, you would be shocked. I have dropped mine from as much as 4-5 feet, at least on as many occasions and not a crack or malfunction. Granted, I use a plastic shell for it but just as they have those shells for the MacBook, I am certain the tablets will have them available also.

So, as dropping concerns go, perhaps you were referring to PC's.

I've launched my iPhone a couple dozen times too, Carlos. It's tough. I've always had a case though. A Frogz, then a Noel, and now an Otterbox.
The iPhone is little. The iSlate is supposed to have a 10" 720p resolution screen. Drop it on it's face on a little rock and it's history. It's just physics.
And Christos is gonna be running from class to class.
I'm old and stupid and go real slow and I still drop my phone at least once a day.
I do agree with you that they are incredibly durable. I love this thing. Lisa loves hers, too. They're incredible.
That's why I gotta have the 3G iSlate. They're supposed to have a no 3G and a 3G version. My guess is I can yank my sim card and have a ten inch iPhone. That's easily worth 2k.
From the reviews, it's not likely to multitask or do anything else the touch and iphone doesn't do. That wouldn't really make sense, but that's what they're saying.
At any rate, it's supposed to be unvieled on the 19th or 26th.
And I want one. Bad.
But it aint a college computer. Or a pc.
Come to think of it, I don't think I ever dropped my laptops. But the iSlate ain't a laptop, either.
