The devices were probably abused. I wonder how many have blown up through normal use.

Doesn't matter if the device was abused or not. If a device could explode from even an accidental drop, then it's still a problem with the device.

What if someone took perfect care of their ipod and had it hooked up to their stereo in their car. Now out of the blue, another car comes crashing into them accidentally and that ipod goes flying around inside the car and crashes against something forcefully. Wouldn't you be worried if that ipod was now a ticking time bomb? That's a secondary hazard that should not exist.
