I would trade all of those features for a case design that didn't require me to use a cover without shattering the screen and/or back. I had dropped my 3G/3GS dozens of times with just some scuffs- I've cracked the screen or back on my iPhone 4 thrice :(

I've dropped my caseless iPhone 4 on sidewalks and other hard surfaces a handful of times. It's gotten dinged up, but nothing's cracked.
I have dropped my iPhone on tiles at work without scratching the screen. But in saying that, i've seen others at work crack their screen the same way. Just luck I guess
did you get a new one each time?
I cracked my 3G screen with as much ease as I cracked my 4, unfortunately.
