My nano has been through HELL and back...

half the screen is fucked, so you can only see the top half moving by...

but other than that... its survived the harshness of snow, ocean, 5 stories of gravity + the ground, and even dog slobber.

I seriously am expecting it to just disentigrate one of these days... but it keeps truckin somehow.

I was at my friend's dorm complex at his school. I stupidly set it on the railing for a sec.. next to my drink to go to the bathroom.

Came back and my ipod was gone.

at first I thought someone stole it, but my friend was right there and he said nobody had walked onto the balcony while I was gone.

Went down to the bottom. 5 floors down to the bottom.. expecting my ipod to be in pieces.

it landed flat on its back. no breakage at all.
