so if its dropped on a hard floor the accelerometer should be fine, the ipod will tilt fine as you tilt your device etc.???max wrote:
no, the accelerometer shouldn't take any damage. Chances are you'll crack your screen and case first

lol, my screen is fine atm, i am looking for a case, i went to my local apple store and the idiots only had 1st gen cases.tazz. wrote:
Ive had my ipod for now a year, 16GB one, and its tough, only thing ive noticed is that the actual speed of everything slows down, especially opening settings, it takes me about 7-10 seconds to open fucking setings, i mean wts.... mech, i like it
My front screen however is VERY scratched, it scratches easy, i have many scratches that are deap, all over it, i bout myself a darth pod back for it, which looks sexy (Google it)
But the only thing that hasnt fucked so far is the accelerometer, i'd be more worried about the screen and/or the porn you hide on it being found.
I'd prefer to keep it jailbrokenrammunition wrote:

have you updated your firmware??? 2.2 came out on sunday and has improved the stabilty and speed for me.
i've noticed that themes make it very slow. i just re-jailbroke to 2.1, meaning i had to restore it, and installed everything again, and without themes its still very fast. just don't use a theme.tazz. wrote:

it is so much more durable than you think. i have a screen protector but i didn't have one for a couple months. never got a scratch on the glass part. the back, however, scratches easily. i don't really care though. dropping it isn't much of an issue. i've done it several times and it ends up fine. what IS an issue, though, is dents and scratches on the bezel along the outer edge. that thing gets dented and scratched easily. i recommend you buy a silicone case that covers the edge (i didn't want to buy one because i thought it'd detract from the "beauty", but i hate myself for it now.)
edit: i have the 1st gen, 16 GB. the accelerometer should be fine.
