It’s always cool to see impossible feats of strength that our gadgets sometimes endure. For most of us, we worry about dropping our precious gadgets even a few inches onto any hard floor. For one “bb-gun” on DroidForums, his DROID Eris didn’t necessarily survive some nasty drop, but instead conquered not one, but two feast of strength. Going into the weekend, bb-gun dropped his beloved DROID Eris onto the driveway into some light snow and was...

Get your salt shakers folks. You’ll need them yet again as this is for now a “what if” type of question.
