Metal Battery cover for Sprint

while it is a cool concept (very cool actually) i have to wonder how much it would effect signal strenght.
*warning, toilet talk ahead*
lets be honest, we all use our phones on the Can. i do it at work all the time. sometimes i set my phone on the T.P. dispenser thing which is an aluminum box...as soon as i do that, i go from 2 bars 4g straight to 1 bar 3G.

not saying a metal battery cover will do the same thing, but i have a feeling it will effect the signal somewhat.

Iwas actually wondering the same thing, it may be made out of aluminum which would be less interference.

also I wonder how NFC works....
