Not in English but who cares! The guy messes with the phone for a good twenty minutes. Love this thing already!

I hate that as well. I always have my phone sitting in a holder in portrait mode for charging and for using the headphone jack. Those days are gone I guess..

They're still using a new reinforced glass, it was confirmed on their FB page.

As for the headphone jack, I don't see what the problem is? Did you want it on the side? I'm just curious. I hated my Droid's headphone jack on the top, it always felt awkward.

I always use my iTouch for music when I'm running and the headphone jack on the bottom seems to work best.

That clears up the concerns about the battery not being removable.

I guess it's just what I'm used to! I'm sure I'll adapt.

Same here, I prefer the headphones jack on the bottom and I like it has the mini usb on the bottom also. I always had to plug my OG in on the right of me for it to not feel awkward.

Where the ports are really dont bother me one way or another unless its like the thunderbolt where they put the charging port at the bottom making it basically impossible to watch a movie with the phone resting on its side with the kick stand. They practically tried to force people to buy the docks.

Anybody else see him almost drop the G-Nex at 21:24? I gasped.
