Apple considering clamshell iPhone?
Not quite a clamshell, but a flip-phone. Apple submitted a patent application for something that looks like an iPhone with a flip-phone design and a “dual-sided trackpad device.” The design would have a touch screen on the top and bottom. Think of it as a RAZR, with a large touch screen on the top and bottom. The design would eliminate the need for those thick and bulky cases that make your iPhone and iPod Touch look ugly. Though patent submissions don’t always happen, this may be Apple’s jump to make a whole line or iPhones. iPhone… Mini, iPhone… Classic?

I don’t like the idea of a flip-phone iPhone. Flipphones/Clamshell devices always feel so fragile and breakable in your hand, it’s not like the iPhone screen is scratchable, only glass, ruby and diamonds can scratch it! I tried running it through with a knife and keys to scratch it for a Youtube Video, testing it’s durability and not one mark.
