I liked aspects of my old iPhone 4. The glass back was really easy to replace and seemed to crack before the screen and absorb most of the force of impact. I'd rather spend $10 replacing the back of the iPhone then have a screen shatter. If a new…

spaceage said: This whole system is so out of touch with any supposed "pro" market that it purports to address. What is with a "3-5 day" repair period? If you are a pro, and you've invested $10k or more into a system like this, how happy mu…

Based on comments at Microsoft's build conference when they announced Objective-C coming to Windows in the fall, Swift will probably be available in Visual Studio soon too.
