However, there is always the chance that a large enough static charge (the kind that shocks the crap out of you :icon_eek could damage the phone. In my experience however, the Droid just reboots with a large enough ESD.
Do you usually play with your Wimshurst machine while talking on your Droid ? :laugh:
lol
Seriously, in the winter, the new carpet in my apartment is insane when it comes to static! I can walk (not drag my feet on purpose) from the bedroom to the office (about 10 feet) and touch the light switch and get a nice *pop!* from the static discharge, every time.
Fun times when the g/f is unsuspecting :icon_ devil:
