Mine has been through the washer and drier three times now. It also got 
snapped off the back of my laptop (by a careless user, not myself) which 
broke the case and the USB connector off. I was able to solder back on the 
connector and then put the formerly sonic welded case back together by using 
adhesive lined heat shrink. It's in my pocket every day along with a few 
writing utensils, cell phone, and keys. No problems thus far!

I keep some aprsworld related things on (trying to stay on-topic).
