Wondering what will happen if you keep your iPhone in the pocket with  keys and other sharp objects? Will it scratch? What if you drop it, will it break? Yah, we been wanting to know that too.

Apple wouldn't obviously tell us but here's a video of the crash & scratch test done on iPod by the geeks at PC World and it seems the results are relieving. The iPhone can sustain quite a lot of abuse and dropping as is evident from the video.

Of course, it's never a bad idea to get some extra protection like a scratch guard.
