inTune - plastic case feels cheaply made

The inTune works fine - no problems there. But from the pictures and advertising, I expected it to be approximately the weight and feel of an iPhone. I was a little disappointed when I first took it out of the box and held it.

I'm not saying it's not a good device - it's just that if it's designed to look kinda/sorta like an iPhone - and clearly that's what it was designed after - then it ought to have a nice, substantial weight and feel similar to an iPhone.

Anyway, that's my two cents.

fwiw, the case is not plastic, its metal :)

we'll take it under advisement though...

Thanks

Oh boy, metal that feels like cheap plastic? 32 gauge aluminum?

Yes, that's right. Metal that feels like cheap plastic. If you wouldn't have told me, I would not have known the inTune was made out of metal, it feels so lightweight that I really thought it was plastic.

Sorry, I was under the assumption that this forum was called a SUGGESTION BOX. I simply chimed in with my opinion.

You won't get the weight of the iPhone though, because that thing has a battery in there. I knew it was metal, but only because I bent it in my pocket. :(
