That's very subjective. When I first bought my iPad (1st gen) I treated it like a baby, but now it's just like a paperback book; I throw it on the couch, carelessly shove it in a bag, squeeze it among clothes in a backpack. It can handle that, and I bet the aluminium back will still look better than rubber after a year of heavy use.
