Yes, actually I saw a keyboard one could roll up, It was strange and I did not feel that comfortable typing on it but then, I use a standard keyboard all day long at work so, those with small keys or oddly placed keys are not my friends.

I rememer once using aluminum canes that bowed almost as soon as I touched them. It's an aluminum characteristic. Maybe someday the iPhone will actually be flexible in an intentional sense. Until that point, let's be careful. :) Teresa "We can see with the eyes, but we see with the brain as well, and seeing with the brain is often called imagination."--Oliver Sacks On Sep 24, 2014, at 9:20 AM, Steve < <mailto:pipeguy...@gmail.com> pipeguy...@gmail.com> wrote: Because of the aluminum frame in the iPhone 6, it will bend.

I guess we’ll hear more about it if there is a real issue. My first response here is that just from being in a shirt pocket the iPhone won’t bend. Give it a hard enough impact and it will probably bend. I am actually speaking from my own experience since I bent my 5S this summer. I had it in the back pocket of a pair of shorts when I took my dog for a walk to the river. I stepped on a rock which rolled out from under my foot and I was on a fairly steep downhill slope so I just sort of fell down on my behind on about fist-size rocks. Since the iPhone was in my back pocket I sat on it and at first it seemed OK, once I got home I noticed a gap between the touch screen and the top edge of the stainless steel frame big enough to stick a dime through. The phone was working fine and a few weeks later when I was in Vancouver I took it to an Apple Store and since I had bought Apple Care which covers 2 accidental damages, I was able to have it replaced with a new phone for a $79 fee, I guess you can call it a deductible since I see Apple Care as an insurance. My nephew whose parents (my brother and his wife) have a cattle ranch got knocked against a fence post by an unfriendly cow and he bent his iPhone 5. It’s a minor bent and his phone has been working like that for over a year. I think one would have to know the “rest of the story” as Paul Harvey used to say to see why the iPhone 6 Plus in question got bent. For all I know somebody is just trying to give Apple a bad name (again) with such a story, but I guess we’ll find out if this is a real issue or a manufactured one.

Hi, I don’t want to be alarmist, but last night a reputable local newscast in Minneapolis reported that some customers with new iPhone 6 (they didn’t specify 6 or 6+ or both) have found the new iPhone bending after carrying them around in their front shirt pockets. That’s all I know. Hope it’s nothing. Keep your ears to the ground. Keith -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.
