Last week we reported here about a Texas man named, Aron Embry, who was injured when his Droid 2 smart-phone allegedly exploded in his ear. New reports indicate that there may be more to this story than previously indicated. According to an article at gearlog.com, a source within Motorola told PCMag that he believed the phone was probably dropped and that Mr. Embry may have cut himself by using the phone without realizing that the screen was damaged. The undisclosed employee was also quoted as saying, "The only things that could explode in a phone would have resulted in a phone that did not work, yet this phone worked. And there was no explosive damage to the device (things inside blown outward, etc)." Motorola has not released any official report and is continuing to investigate. Hmmm... does the mystery deepen, or is the truth finally coming to light?
