I hope they don't, because that glass face has been far better to use than any other smartphone I've encountered.

I wonder what the cost increase would be of making it from pyrex or polycarbonate. It definitely wouldn't be a very Apple thing to do, but it would be nice.

My glasses are scratch-resistant polycarb and they're scratched all to hell. The aluminosilicate glass on the iPhone 4 is supposed to be stronger and more shatter resistant than Pyrex.
