how do you hold it without causing something unwanted to happen?

Interesting mockup. The 3D is definitely speculative but visually Apple would be on a winner with this design. Just because the screen covers the entire front panel does not mean it has to be sensitive to touch. That would allow Apple to make the screen bigger without 100% touchscreen functionality.

This is a horrible rumor; the retina screen is a maybe but not 3D. You can’t control apps in 3D because your fingers mess up the 3D effect when you bring them to the screen. Which means that if any company did use a 3D screen(yes like the Android one) it will only be used for movie playback. I know what you’re thinking and no tilt-based games won’t work because you’ll be tilting the screen away from you messing up the 3D effect that way. The 3DS works because of the external controls it has.

This is a terrible design. How will you hold it without your thumbs messing up the screen sensor? The iPhone you can pinch between your fingers. the iPad you need some border for your thumb. Also, that iPad ain’t bad outside in the sun. You wanna wreck that with AMOLED?
