Lets Get Naked!
Caseless… who is with me? I have paid hundreds of dollars, possibly thousands, to protect various devices over the years - why?
- Do we really need them?
- Do we really use them?
The devices were designed without a case in mind & many times we buy these devices based on these designs - Did you buy that half inch phone thinking "gee that will look really good with a one inch piece of rubber around it"? I think not! Though I purchase cases I almost always end up taking these cases off!
So why do we spend $299 for a phone and $50 or more to protected -
- Are we letting the OEM(s) off the hook?
- Shouldn't we expect the OEM to make a dutiable device?
- Have we been conditioned that "we need protection", say like "safe sex"?
Or have we been hoodwinked? Do the OEM(s) make good devices yet the case manufactures have done a great job publicizing damaged device and convincing us to hide these device we purchased, in part, for their looks?
I say - Let's take 'em off, go naked - Shame on the OEM(s) if they are not proud of their designs and build them to be displayed (shown off)!
