They should just drop the glass idea all together. At least for the back part of the phone. There is no reason to have a glass panel on the back of a phone just for looks. I think it would be awesome if for once they could design a phone that is more durable. I understand that they still need to be breakable so they can charge for repairs, how else are they to rip us off? But I think a more reliable and sturdy phone would bring more people in then just the look alone. Oh well the game of politics will still remain when it comes down to "I want it to look good not be good."
