Except that the screen is nowhere near the back of the iPhone. Except that this is a worthless proposition. Good luck with waiting. Let us know how you feel in 2025 when you still don't have an iPhone.

No kidding, it's not even announced yet and people are already complaining about it.

The iPhone could have a 30 day battery life, 1080p video recording with a 4/3rds sensor, auto focus, f/2.0 14-70mm lens with hotshoe, full bar LTE with 100% national coverage, Titanium 5oz case, OLED screen, full background processes and customization capabilities and people would still complain.
lol, exaggerate much? So I guess a few millimeters is "nowhere near". Sure for this gen it won't work but for next gen it is a rumored spec. Can't wait to bump this thread when WWDC is over to quote your little fit up there
Then we'll have more iPhones for everyone else.
Really people, this is a rumor site. Who knows what the iPhone will have. There is no point in getting all excited over something that isn't even announced yet.
How about you just mod it yourself if it doesn't have it?
Aesthetics don't mean much in the long run; just another thing to break.
Well if you're not getting one, I'll gladly take your spot in line.

Let me get this right.
The only way you are going to buy this phone is if it has something else to drain a batter that already sucks as far as battery life?
Bwhahahahahah!!!
I would have bought this post more if you said "I'm not buying the new iphone if there IS a glowing apple logo."
But in all seriousness, I would not mind a glowing logo as long as it provided some type of function and didn't just glow for the sake of glowing.
How about Red if there is a missed call?

When the original was launched.....and when the 3G was launched....people said the same things...."I won't buy unless it has...." and it tended not to have those things....yet they still bought it after a few weeks of its release
I think a 5oz titanium case would be heavy for a case, i don't think a titanium case for the iPhone would weigh that much.
You're on the fence over a glowing 'look at me' logo?!
Anyway I won't upgrade unless it has an OLED screen and 25% battery life increase.
The glowing Apple will be used as a flash for the improved camera, it will not glow at all times. If it does, I'm breaking out the electrical tape in a desperate attempt to cover that foolishness.

And here I thought *I* was picky. Man, that's a really dumb reason to not buy an iPhone. I'm not buying the next iPhone if the home button doesn't pulsate when it's in standby mode. All I want in the next iPhone is a stronger case and better build quality. I'm sick of treating my iPhone 3G like a newborn baby in fear that it's going to crack.
'Cause I really want to advertise the fact that I have one of the most expensive phones on the market if I have to make a phonecall when I'm out at night. The massive touch screen draws enough attention without a stupid glowing apple to really scream "steal my iPhone"
What reason is there for even wanting this, other than to show off that you have an iPhone?

Light up logo = Douchebagness x 1000, unless it lets you know you've missed a call, sms, mms, email, etc.
Even that wouldn't do most people much good. Do you often put your iPhone on the table face-down?
