Digitimes is reporting that Apple and other companies are preparing to release devices with curved-glass screens in the first half of 2012.
Where this begins to fall apart, is the fact that Digitimes claimed earlier this year that the next-generation iPhone will feature a curved-glass screen, but all the evidence we’ve seen up to this point, puts those claims in question. To put it bluntly, why should we believe them a second time?
