I'll thank nokia for one thing. I've dropped my n800 more than a couple of times on HARD surfaces like roads, tiled flooring, ice. Yet all my tablet has is some white specks on the corners. But the main reason why my tablet fell is because the sock is horrible. It slips out way to easily and I worry more about dropping my tablet than getting jumped by a hobo. The sock worries me too much and it needs a strap of some sort to hold the tablet in. Which is why i need a case.
