I could be wrong and they've used polycarbonate for the frame portion as well. I'm willing to accept that. But the original review I read on the device cited aluminum, and the one picture you posted showed that side piece is actually part of the frame.
So either the centre frame is aluminum, or the whole bloody thing is polycarbonate and there's no aluminum in it at all (despite what the reviews have stated) because that side portion is part of the middle portion. This is standard design practice. Though I'm used to seeing it made of aluminum (and often painted black, beige....etc to match other parts of the phone) ala various Blackberry phones.
I'm currently trying to find an X-Ray of a phone that I know has an aluminum frame and see what the contrast looks like. If I'm wrong, I'm wrong. As much as I'd hate being wrong (as you appear to feel equally as strong about, LOL!!!) I'll admit it if that's the case
Fair?
