Your desktop and monitor would better survive being dropped on the pavement than your phone?

Perhaps, but even if not, they are very unlikely to hit the pavement. The gp argument was that people don't know how to care for expensive electronic devices and that's why they brake their phones.

My argument is that most people can handle other expensive electronic devices just fine, it's just that smartphones are not durable enough for their intended use.

Er,
