How much more would you be willing to pay for a flat-screen TV with virtually unbreakable glass?

That's the question posed by an Associated Press report in early-August 2010 that says the scratch-proof, dent-proof, ultra-thin and lightweight "Gorilla Glass" may soon be available in flat-screen televisions. Gorilla Glass is already available in more than 100 different devices, including smartphones and notebook computers - but it may soon be coming to your living room television as well.

According to the AP report, Corning - Gorilla Glass's manufacturer - is ramping up production of its Gorilla Glass in anticipation of deals with TV manufacturers in coming months. Using Gorilla Glass in TVs could result in a frameless flat-screen that the AP says "could be mistaken for chic glass artwork on a living-room wall."

Gorilla Glass was first developed by Corning in the early-1960s, but it didn't gain popularity until around 2008 - when it surfaced as a lightweight, protective covering for cell phones and other mobile devices. Some analysts have said if Gorilla Glass is added to televisions, Corning could have a "multibillion-dollar bonanza" on its hands.

The addition of Gorilla Glass to TVs could be costly for consumers, adding between $30 and $60 to the price of a TV by some estimates.

Between $30 and $60? If I'm paying $1800 for a TV I'd have no problem, what-so-ever paying an extra $60 to ensure that the fucker's hard to scratch or break. My cats knocked my Xmas tree into my 46" Samsung and scratched it.

Give me Gorilla Glass TV's please.

between 30 and 60 dollars seems like a reasonable investment for absolute quality assurance.

Gorilla glass isn't "virtually unbreakable", many smart phones have their screens made out of Gorilla Glass, and we know those can break.
