Front Differential Broke, Anyone Else?

My X5 came to a halt the other day and the diagnosis is that I need a new front diff. Has anyone else had this issue. The indy shop I took it to says this is pretty uncommon, but it does happen. And it ain't cheap. My ride has 95k on it.
If the front failed, should I worry about the rear failing or other things like the transmission? Should I look at selling the car as this issue might snowball into other ones.
Not a great way to start 2010.
Thanks for the help.
