When I bought my first smart phone (the iPhone 4S)two years ago I went right out and bought an Otterbox for it. (A friend demonstrated its usefulness to me by throwing his phone to the sidewalk, repeatedly, and watching me cringe.) It has come out of that case only once since then.
I also bought the one year extended warrantee (the Apple one) because I know that the risk of damage to a device that is held in my hands, dropped in my purse and passed around to other people is pretty high.
Absolutely nothing has happened to it in that time.
But you know, something COULD have...that's why it's called an accident.
The original SC was a jerk....and deserved what he got. I admit I don't like high pressure sales talk, as it makes me nervous, but the original poster was right; it really was for the customer's own good.
Have you folks seen the video of the first man to buy the new 6S when it came out? A news crew filmed him and asked him to take it out of the box so they could film it....and the poor guy promptly dropped it on the sidewalk, where it shattered. Argh.
