This is PCWorld's video on how the iPhone 3G holds up when dropped, soaked, scratched, and tortured! This is an amazing demo, and I think the phone actually holds up better than the original! Not sure if these are real life scenarios as I have never dropped my phone in my cereal or completely hosed my iPhone down in the sink but it sure is fun to watch.

AWH! you broke my heart... Poor I phone. I am a new convert to Apple. I am user of smartphones for close to 5 years, the I phone is awsome, I love it. I know I did lost some features when a Changed my Moto Q 9H for the Iphone but I felt I got to get it. I made a 4 hour line, and I got myself one. I got the 16G and I do not regret it a bit. What make me happy is that by your testing it's proves to me that the I phone is not as weak as I thought, Good Job. I am a new member.

They forgot to test using a plastic stylus made to be used on Windows Mobile touch screens. Now those will scratch! :) Even dust scratched my Treo, HP iPaq's, and even the Sony Clie'

Looks like it is almost as durable as the Diamond.
