As much as I hate threads full of clueless people opining on what we'll see in iPhone 5, I am curious if anyone would be interested in mini Smart Covers.
 
It would be cool if it flipped up vertically, like an old-school detective's notepad cover.
 
imagine all the lint, dust and grit getting between it and your screen while it's in your pocket moving around. A disaster waiting to happen.
 
It would be pointless for me as I use my phone a lot, and having to peel a cover off my phone would get annoying after 10 minutes. Also, this would block notifications if we were to see an upgraded notification system. I wouldn't buy one.
 
i think it would hurt for apple to put the magnet in there for companies that make pouches and folio cover or wallets so when you close it you know it is off, as for the smart cover i dont think that would work
 
It would slide off in your pocket with all the movement of walking.

the magnets in the smart cover are strong enough to hold the ipad up on a fridge...unless you're wearing really tight pants, i think it'd hold fine
