Should an Expensive Cordless Power Drill Break in Half After Falling From Four Feet Up?

So, this happened to my expensive drill gun after falling to the floor off a counter. Bummed, but hoping that Hitachi Power Tools will hook me up. Feel free to help by emailing them on my behalf. I only had the drill for about a year when this happened. It had never been mistreated and hadn't even been used that much, due to the fact that I wasn't teaching theatre last year.

I got your back. Here's what I wrote to them:
I have recently discovered that many of your power drills do not carry the durability that I would expect from you, especially at the prices you charge. My brother, Kyle Martin, purchased one of your drills, and after a year of less of use, it dropped off a counter and split in two! Now I understand that nothing, least of all power tools are indestructible, but a simple fall from a 4-foot counter should not cause near the damage that this did.
It split the drill in half. That is nothing less than cheap, shoddy craftsmanship. I would encourage you to own up to the terrible work that went into testing this durability. Make this right by Mr. Martin, and take a good look at yourselves in the mirror, asking, "Am I satisfied by making a terrible product for a buck, or do I want to change the world?"
Jason, that's amazing. Simply amazing. They didn't, however, give a crap. No new drill.
The 12v Dewalt Nicad is only about six months old, and the battery life on it is pretty pathetic. That makes it pretty much a two horse race between the Dewalt and the Snap-On.porter cable impact driver
