If you have picked up a BlackBerry PlayBook, you are probably treating it like a fine piece of crystal, but what if it does drop to the pavement?
Squaretrade, which offers online warranties for your electronic items, decided to test out the BlackBerry PlayBooks resilience when dropped from waist high to the pavement.
We bought a brand-new BlackBerry PlayBook tablet and did some drop tests from waist-high. Trying to simulate if you drop it from a coffee table or on the street.
Drop #1 – Scratched the corners, broke glass in the corner
Drop #2 – Landed flat on the screen and shattered it
We’d like to giveaway 2 FREE warranties! You’ll get years of accident protection for your portable devices. Just comment below — tell us what you’d like us to drop test next. We’ll pick 2 winners on Monday, April 25.

P.S. We don’t cover intentional damage like you see in the video.
