GORILLA GLASS FOR YOUR PHONE OR LAPTOP.

GORILLA GLASS 2,TECHNOLOGY, BY CORNING::
IMPACT AND SCRATCH PROOFING FOR YOUR SMART PHONE OR LAPTOP


Why is Gorilla Glass the new state of the art surface for your smart phone and other tech devices?

The answer is simple: It's a new generation of thinner yet stronger, glass for your important tech devices like your smart phone, laptop, or t.v. set.  It not only resists impact better than normal glass panes of equal thickness; it is resistant to most solvents and liquid chemicals; which means you can clean it with a normal window cleaner or soap and water without scratching the surface.

Does it affect the performance of my touch screens etc.?

Corning states that it actually works better for sensitivity where needed.  It allows the glass coverings to be thinner with increased strength which means that you actually get better performance.

How is it possible to have a thinner glass that is stronger with more scratch resistance?


The glass is placed in a hot bath of molten salt at a temperature of approximately 400°C. Smaller sodium ions leave the glass, and larger potassium ions from the salt bath replace them. These larger ions take up more room and are pressed together when the glass cools, producing a layer of compressive stress on the surface of the glass. *

Does this increase  my cost when I request Gorilla Glass 2 with a new purchase?

The answer is no. It is already available on the newer generation of smart phones, laptops, and even television sets.  You should ask your sales persons if your next purchases come equipped with Gorilla Glass. See the partial list below of manufacturers that are offering the Gorilla Glass surface.


Which manufacturers have products out now that feature Gorilla Glass, or Gorilla Glass 2?
Currently ACER, HTC, SAMSUNG, LENOVO,  and more are using the first generation. Gorilla Glass 2 was just announced Fe. of 2012. "The company expects the first Gorilla Glass 2-equipped devices to be available in April or May. Corning Gorilla Glass is used by more than 30 major brands and has been featured in more than 600 product models, spanning over 600 million units worldwide. Read on for the company’s press release."*

The Masters Shown Below list their favorite Quotes regarding Motivation

On Overcoming Procrastination: Tony Robbins and  Nike said it Best:

" Just Step Up " : Tony Robbins
" Just Do It "     : Nike


It seems though, that anything I have personally accomplished has been a direct
result of focusing on a specific goal, with a time deadline attached.  Bruce Jenner also credited his Olympic Decathlon victory to setting a 4 year goal and  checking his goal list daily.  Take a minute and set which quotations the masters have chosen as the keys to motivation.

QUOTES from the Masters...
On Desire/Motivation On Experience
"The best motivation is self-motivation. The guy says, 'I wish someone would come by and turn me on.'  What if they don't show up? You've got to have a better plan for your life." -- Jim Rohn
"Desire is the starting point of all achievement, not a hope, not a wish, but a keen pulsating desire which transcends everything." -- Napoleon Hill
"The only real limitation on your abilities is the level of your desires.  If you want it badly enough, there are no limits on what you can achieve." -- Brian Tracy
"The difference between the impossible and the possible lies in a man's determination." -- Tommy Lasorda
"Life is a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood." -- Ralph Waldo Emerson "Experience is an asset of which no worker can be cheated, no matter how selfish or greedy his immediate employer may be." -- Napoleon Hill
"Take time to gather up the past so that you will be able to draw from your experiences and invest them in the future." -- Jim Rohn
"Develop wisdom in sales by reflecting on your experience, and learning everything you can from every call." -- Brian Tracy
