I did have issues with 2 Pinecils breaking on me. The first one they replaced under warranty. I still use a 3rd I have, so I don't mind recommending it because I can get a Pinecil for cheaper than a TS100, and I doubt you'll get better support for a TS100 if something does come up within the warranty period.

Oh I should mention I have both the TS100 and Pinecil, and the Pinecil does everything the TS100 does.
