I've seen Tony's phone on the floor squirming like a fish out of water. Thing is made of Ti.

I hope the glass really is better. I bought my 3g the day or two after they were released. I'm on my 4th one. One broken sim card read and two cracked screens. I've been lucky and only had to pay to replace one as the guy made a mistake on the second replacement procedure. But I gotta admitt $200 replacement fee really cuts into my cigar and Keystone budget

All I can say is on June 15 I order my first iPhone and I couldn't be more excited about a phone.

I called the wife and broke the news to her.
Told her no nails and hair that week as I need the cash instead.

I'm looking forward to June 21st myself. Having just gotten my 3Gs a couple months back I find the upgrade to an iPhone 4 will be pretty unlikely…… but I'm really looking forward to some of the features in OS 4

its hot in here...

long read but insightful : http://gizmodo.com/5555953/fanboyism-and-brand-loyalty

Also, I'm fairly certain theres a threshold to a degree of durability to a product. Every company (not just Apple) does the best it can to spend the least amount of money on a product while selling it for the most profit.

As far as durability, I admit the iPhone is pretty good. I have had the original, and the 3G.

Dont get me wrong, the glass can break, and it does not require a bad impact either. I had mine in my back pocket one day and sat on a bench on my back patio. Caught the edge of the face of the phone and thats all she wrote. The picture of the shattered glass in the pic above looks mild compared to mine.

The good news is that shattered LCD's and digitizer glass on most all iPhones can all be replaced/repaired.


With that said, I'll be getting the 4 when its released.

Kelly,
You just reminded me of a funny story in my life.
I am a gadget freak and when cell phones came out, I had one of the first ones in the car, then the portable briefcase, then that Motorola brick and then things got sweet as technology went, we got the Motorola Flip Phone in our lives.

I had every generation of the Flip Phone but the first one is the one you reminded me of. I walked into the AT&T store with the phone in about 25 pieces and dropped it on the counter and told them the phone stunk. It just fell apart from normal use. The jerk that was with me then started laughing and then the employee realized I was just kidding. I actually dropped the phone on the ground, it survived that impact but apparently it was poorly made as it didn't tolerate the tires going over it as I backed up my car.

Doubtful, would eliminate the need to spend more money (lots) on a device with a few bucks worth of added memory
