My ex-boyfriend went through 3 or 4 pairs in one year, I could hardly believe he stuck around after the second replacement. Guy didn't even do anything besides sit in his office and type, either, I have no idea what could have caused their repeated failure besides bad QA.
I can believe it. I think it's a combination of buggy Software/firmware and hardware issues- they've tried to squeeze too much into too small a space and can't do it reliably.
