Another reason why it worka in place of the word death in that phrase.

My only real experience with symbian was waaaaay back when I did tech support for l Sony Ericsson, and while I was more into modding the phones (remember those days?) and playing worms on a 1.5" screen on the walkman line of phones, I did have the p900 and the p1i.

And let me tell you, OS aside, the P1i was indestructible.

One exceptionally intoxicated weekend, the gf and I got into a bit of a tiff.

She grabbed the phone and threw it out the door or the apartment, onto that polished rock type floor.

It impacted as one would expect.

Shattered into a hundred pieces.

But... The screen was the old capacitive touch type, so it was a layer of plastic with a layer of plastic with a layer of plastic with ultra thin wires with a layer of plastic with a layer of glass with a layer of plastic with a layer of metal backing, and the rest of the internals were modular with push in/flip down cable clips that easily separated. The entire body was plastic.

I laughed.

(I'd taken it apart before because mods)

I picked up the parts, put them together as I walked out and turned it back on.

Anyway, symbian.

Oh, the memories.
