That's one thing I loved about my sony minidisc. I dropped the thing on concrete from at least 4 feet several times, the battery case was partially held on by duct tape. It had been accidentally fully submersed in water and I just had to take it apart and let it dry. The thing just keeps running. It's 6 years old now nearly and just hums along.
