[citation][nom]regulas[/nom]Everyone know plastic scratches much easier than glass. If Apple would have chose platic because of your reason they would have been criticized for being cheap. Apple can't win against the Apple haters. No I don't own or want a iPhone or iPad but I do love my Macbook Pro.[/citation]
I dunno, since most phones are currently made of plastic, I don't think they would have caught too much flak. Of course they would have caught some, because, y'know, it's the internet. But between this and the antenna issues, it seems they engineered a beautiful glass phone that's meant to be hidden beneath plastic covers all the time. Which makes me scratch my head.
I remember my old Nokia 3586i... that thing fell out of my pocket at the top of a rollercoaster and survived. And I've probably dropped my iPhone 3G on pavement dozens of times. Which proves I'm a clutz, and should never be allowed to touch a 4G.
