Hi!
I would like to share some fantasies about the recent iPhone rumors. For those who like it! :)

P.S. Is this the right forum for sharing artwork?

It's not the worst mock up I have ever seen. Can you imagine the amount of dust, dirt, etc. that would get in the space between the edge and screen??
 
It's just having fun with the concept off course. :)

I was thinking about a way to get rid of the home button. A feedback screen could solve that and brings new functionality. I also thought about the dust issue. There are ways to prevent dust crawling in. On the other side, how mutch dust gets stuck inside the ear speaker? It should'nt get behind the display, thats for sure!

It's just not Apple like. Just another thing to break to me and people will constantly be complaining their screen doesn't "click" like it used to.
 
How about this?

Specifically, Apple's filing focuses on the reduction of complexity, cost savings, and streamlined interface such display actuators would provide. The company notes that display actuators could reduce the cost of devices as well as their size, while maximizing the area available for visual output.

"Although the user interface arrangements described above work particularly well, improved user interface devices, particularly ones that can reduce the amount of real estate required and/or ones that can reduce or eliminate input devices, are desired," Apple wrote in its filing.

"By reducing or eliminating the input devices, the display of the electronic device can be maximized within the user interface portion of the electronic device, or alternatively the electronic device can be minimized to the size of the display."
