Well then you've ****ed it.

I've tripped over my cable whilst charging a few times now, bent the connector on the charger but that's it. Had i broken the connector I would have been well annoyed. At myself.

Yeah it could have been better engineered (although I've not heard many reports recently, so did it get changed in later revisions?) but where does it stop?

If i tripped over my laptop cable, I'd expect a broken screen, and have to re-solder the connector (a common fault on laptops)
