hardware switch wishlist/discussion - switches on the outside?
#1
To be honest, I was really expecting the hardware switches to be more accessible so I could control them easily throughout the day. It would be comforting to have switches immediately accessible so I could see them and be able to be switched on/off again throughout the day without taking off the back.

Did the team look into making the switches accessible from the outside?

Switching them requires some type of small device. I can't even access them with the corner of a fingernail. Is it possible that future models will have much more accessible hardware switches that can be switched with a finger or fingernail easily?

Are there limitations or problems with switching the various modules on/off many times throughout the day?

What, if any, are the foreseeable problems with making the switches more accessible, and on the outside of the phone?
