Anyway,its not just Apple to buy smaller dependant buisines,just google a bit and see how many smaller companies were misused by Samsung for that matter(and I mean vacum cleaners,not cell phones)

                          yeah, smooth move. because they give milions of jobs in china who is producing apple product and they dont want to be accused of not giving jobs to Americans they spend tiny fraction home of what they incested overseas.
                          cool they create SOME jobs back in America but in my opinion it should be like if a minimum 50% of total production is not kept within the originating country they should pay bilions in fines!!!
                          Well apple sells most of its products in america so they could care more about their main market.
                          this is a capitalism for you. capitalusm allows you to sell your country elsewhere and small Joe is ft!

                          Its like buying younger son a remote controlled car to shut him up only because your elder got a real ferrari.

                                I think all of us have the wrong conception, a glass that is scratch proof doesn't mean it is break proof and vice versa.... Manufacturers still have not mastered the technology where you get both scratch proof and break proof at the sams time... A rolex Sapphire glass is scratch proof but that does not mean it is break proof....

                                        Any good research if this is motivated by government incentives? For now, I reckon this a move by Apple which signifies more requirement for glass, in terms of quality and quantity. They might go with glass backs with phones next year.
