You need a glowing version of this as your iPhone background.

Why the hell are the iPhones so easily breakable? My Blitz has been thrown in excess of 30 ft, and even when it split nearly in two, it easily snapped back together and still functions just fine.

Because your blitz doesn't have a sensitive, fragile touch screen that covers 90% of the surface of the phone.

Unless iPhones have changes since last I saw one this morning and the touchscreen is now on the back as well, at most the fragile touchscreen covers 50% of the surface of the phone (less including the thin edges).

It doesn't change your point and is pedantic but I don't want you one day crashing a rover into Mars.

You and your third dimension.

The breakable discussion puts me in mind of the first great technologically significant, portable, expensive device - the pocketwatch. Too bad there's nowhere on a naked iPhone to attach a short wallet chain to prevent dropping. You're still stuck with a case.

I still want Jane Lynch more than an iphone.

(Does vBulletin allow for embedded video to youtube?)

It would require a hack to embed video.

Wow, that's a great idea, CP. What a dumb thing not to incorporate in the new phone - in a world of thieves, much less butterfingers.

I can only imagine it's the usual Planned Obsolescence.

I just wanna know if it blends.
