Not true. Most decent smartphones now are using gorella glass, kevlar coverings, etc, much sturdier than the plastic of my Garmin. The "free" and low end smartphones maybe fragile but thats just like any other product, you can't lump them all with the bottem end.
One of the newer Droids, I presume. True, true. They're getting tougher and thinner. Apple just announced a partnership with a company which makes "electromagnetic castings from liquid metal." In a nutshell they have this new plastic that when exposed to a EMF field it adheres and then turns to solid metal around a cast. Supposedly light as titanium and stronger than steel per-size.
They'll get tougher, that's for sure.
