a little technical question..

[oosk2k11]

yo, i'm a product designer, wondering how the glass of the iphone 3g is held down. i know it's suction-related, but more detail would be greatly appreciated as i'd like to incorporate this technique to my own design concept.

cheers

Good luck not being sued by Apple and, as a designer, you don't know how to find these details?

Well from this tear down youtube video I was just watching, it appears only screws are keeping it together. Very interesting video.

Edit: I thought it was the 4S, but you want to know the 3G. Still an interesting video to watch.
