I want one. do you think somebody will come out with one (Because the backs are so easily taken off?)
 
Probably. Where there is a market there will be a product. We've already seen at least one company announce an aftermarket back plate (the site offering the 200 year old African wood panels).... It's just a matter of time for metal backs as well.

Hey is that really all titanium. Or is it a titanium sheet stuck to some plastic? The first two look good the last not so much. It would be great if they were solid titanium.

Hey,

These are solid all the way through with all original iphone components present and accounted for. I've seen so many cheap metal backs from China, that advertise as "Titanium (colored) metal" which is nothing more than anodized aluminum over plastic. This was made according to how it was originally intended.
