Dear Sirs,
We have considered your patent application for an iPhone home button protector, and our reply is: "knickers to that".
Why bother with tthe phone
Alternatively the people that buy these "revolutionary ideas " could simply walk around with a pair of underwear on their own heads.

with a pencil up each nostril, saying pa-paaa? wubble.
It's not that crazy you know...
There was a time just a few years back when it was trendy for people (well some people) in this country to put their phones in knitted socks! So we shouldn't laugh!

Lol, 2 people in my office still do.......

One of the entrepreneurs behind those shocks popped up a few years later as a "oooh look, social media can help you sell stuff" motivational speaker. In a past journalistic life in small business I found this quite amusing.

Oh thats what they were, I kept getting free ones in the post thinking wtf do they think the size of my feet are.
They made good cat toys.
"Protect your home button"
I read that as "protect your home bottom" in this context
Am I the only one?
Well it makes a change...

Great job
How do I apply for the position of finding suitable images to attach to these stories?
Optional
Can we use this as evidence that the iPhone is pants?
Oh my!
If I Iphone hasn't got any pants on does this mean it's naked?
This just goes to show
The Japanese can almost always out-weird everyone else with their fads.
I'm struggling to think which is worse, underwear for your phone or a bra for your car. If you're old enough, and lived in the US you might remember those. Dunno about outside the US, perhaps those of you in more civilized countries were spared this particular abomination!

Senator Conroy is ordering stock for his next meeting with the local Telcos.....
Oh darn
I thought it was iPhones for knickers.
A vibrate mode? mmmmmmmmmmYEAH!
Paris, for some reason.
Not so silly. In Victorian times, respectable households in London would put velour trouser-legs on the legs of tables and chairs, to protect their dignity. Legs were, of course, never referred to as 'legs', but as 'understandings'....
