Stress Testing

[MagicPants]

About 14 years ago I had a summer job assembling medical PDAs. One day I was assigned stress testing the touch panel which meant scribbling on it for a day. It would have been a boring job if there hadn't been another tester (also I quickly learned to switch hands).

Anyway I was wondering what interesting and amusing stress testing the Pandora has gone through?

(some ideas)
Drop it from a table
Drop it from a table while open
Run it constantly(or be recharging it's battery) for a week
Scribble on the touch screen for a day
Dunk it in water (while off), let it dry and turn it back on
Dunk it in water (while on), turn it off, let it dry out and turn it back on
Put it in a plastic bag (no ventilation) and use it for a day
Drive over it with a car
Pass a strong(ish) magnet over it while running
Find it's hottest operating temp
Find it's coldest operating temp
Let a four year old play with it
Attempt to blend it
Insult it
Microwave it
Cover it in aluminum foil and see if the government can read it's data

We've had at least two other threads on this very topic, and all of 'em reached the same conclusion: The devs haven't even assembled a final Pandora, and we don't even know if they've got a finalized version of the case in their possession yet. They can do stress tests just about as well as you can at this point.

and thus, this thread is pretty much useless and will most likely decend into off-topic posts.
