    Let me put a word here now..

    This happened cos apple dint know this was gonna happen to their phones when they made it or cos have never used an aluminium thing before! Lol

    Now here is an interesting one..

    This happened cos apple made it INTENTIONALY happen to get another EXTRA MONEY from their loyal FANS.. :)

    And this is why i pity them..( loyal fans )

    Yet they still know nothing when apple is trying hard to get money as much as possible from their stupid loyal fans

    To be honest if apple were actually among those who innovates and care for their consumers and not for money then even those android or wp fans would have thought bout getting it.. but i know dats not gonna happen as the only thing dat apple sees in their eyes is only MONEY.. now they will get another extra money when their iSUE fans get a case to protect their more than Ever FRAGILE phone..

    P.S i love bashing these istupid fans lol

        Iphone Killer Dah? Galaxy S II, Galaxy S III, Optimus G , one X, Xperia T so on and so forth. and even lumia 920
        Wake up dude get your head out of the false marketing done by apple in US.
        Iphone is not the best smartphone. Period !
        just use a android phone for some time and if you know your way around tech devices you will get to know that open source android phones are far better than ios devices.

                  iSJ5, 24 Sep 2012idevices user is intelligent. Period!i wouldn't call it intelligent. Coz iPhone is for phone dummies (too simple). We android users like to own our phone and tweak it so much until we know our phone inside and out.

                                  Only in USA, Apple can win because the jury is biased. And it is so unfortunately these jury support Apple when Apple did not bring in the jobs to Americans. China, Taiwan, Japan and South Korea all benefited from Apple. They have to thank you Apple for that and, oh, the last laugh...
