    Loved Leno last night when someone sent him in an ad from unknown origin advertising this "feature" as the "Leno Chin"

    Seems like it would be a built in screen protector as well...if dropped on a flat surface with that angle the screen would never actually touch the ground...the impact would be absorbed by the case first.

    @mdmadph: Yeah, but then the proprietary charging/access jack is pretty much ubiquitous, as it's the standard* of Apple's mobile devices


    *with the exception of certain devices not being compatible with the iphone, such as the FM dongle and older charging units.
