And I'm just waiting for Snapdragon SoC modules.
And as far as the looks go the back looks fine I personally don't find the front appealing, but hey it's all about the idea and possibilities and not the looks.

It will sell some at first, even dead babies bounce a little if dropped from high enough altitude, ie if enough cash is injected, but after that they are expected to be very quiet and immovable.

            Aside from dressing it up whichever you like, you can also customize the parts and the phone would still work.
            I think you need to read the specs and what it does again.

              Soon manufacturers will also sell modules of their chipsets, accessories, screens and other parts

                Dot-WiFi, 15 Jan 2015super strong magnet ??Yes,very strong magnets but won't affect the electromagnets on board the phone

                      Google or third party case makers could potentially make cases that go over the entire back, making it look like a normal phone.

                        But the only thing wrong with it is the camera for example
                        Wouldn't you like to replace it only?
                        Or do you like spending money on the phone as a whole and still you will find mistakes?

                          It's a neat idea but at the same time it's something that should have stayed at the concept stage. You know like when you go to trade shows and see a concept/prototype of something cool on display but not very practical -- that's what this is. We're all saying the same thing; it looks cool, but who here actually wants one?

                          I don't think this is going to pick up any traction. It's gotten this far only because Google has tons of money to waste on stuff like this. Wouldn't be surprised to see them sell this division at a loss.

                                I think it will be better if they use casing for the back after putting the module..safer I think..
