lol, figures I'd read this today after almost breaking my droid last night. In a freak accident, one of my speakers (decent size and weight) fell on my droid, bending the frame and or screen in the process. When I first picked it up, I closed the phone, and the edge of the screen and screen frame stuck up from the keyboard by about an inch.
Incredibly, I popped the battery in the back, booted it up, and it still worked. I then clipped the phone in each corner of the side that was bent up with these plastic clip things you put on potato chip bags lol, and some rubber bands in an effort to try to gradually bend it back into shape. It seems to have made some progress, but I've got the rubber bands on it now. At least it's still functioning properly, everything still works as far as I know.
In conclusion, these things are absolute beasts, and I've had good luck with motorola phones in general (razr, crazr) with drops/accidents. I just hope that things don't get worse from here, because I don't want to get one of the phones listed above as a weak replacement.
