Giveaway: Two new Element carbon-fiber iPhone 4 cases (TUAW.com)

Jun 2nd 2011 12:12AM Two weeks after I bought my iPhone 4 I was getting out of my car to get gas. I had my phone in my left hand and it was about 18 inches from the ground when it decided that it wasn't happy with me as its owner and jumped.

I watched it in slow motion and I swear I heard it scream. Actually it was probably me screaming like a little school girl.

I bent down to pick it up and the front screen was shattered. I was devastated! I depend on my phone for work and I felt utterly lost. I used to joke that I took better care of my phones than my wife so I guess that explains the two alimony payments I make each month.

I called applecare and spoke with John. He let me cry on his (virtual) shoulder for a while and set me up with an appointment at the nearest Apple store. I ended up driving 4 hours on the day of my appointment and was rushed right in. Jerry, the genius who helped me offered me a tissue as I handed him my destroyed iPhone and softly said "I'ts ok, I'ts ok." He took my ravaged device and replaced it with a brand new iPhone. I swear it even smelled like roses as he handed it to me.
