ouch!


This is the third shattered iphone I have come across in the past two months. It's unbearable to see the smooth, silky glass cracked like an eggshell in so many different places. In fact, I have noticed one too many broken iphones that I am pleasantly surprised when I find one in tact. What's the deal? The iphone revolutionized the cell phone category with its lake-like touch screen, simple casing, and inexplicable magic. It seems so wrong for it to look like a pair of gym sneakers. 

The iphone above belongs to Peter who dropped it while someone tried to rob him of it. His situation is understandable, but he admitted that his roommate's iphone was also cracked. Why can't people just hold on to these beautifully expensive devices? Is it too sexy and sleek for it's own good? One more slip, and you may find out.
