So in that case, the worst situation we can have with the Glo is that they value-engineered the glass or the frame, to be more fragile than the KTouch. The fact that they would have glass in the first place is therefore, just status-quo. So, I guess my question then is, what is all the fuss about? From what Sombreastre says, it sounds like we really need to watch where we put our rear-ends.
