Why is the Droid Ultras Glass Screen so then that it cracks so easly

[genevia45]

I received the Droid Ultra on April 4 and had it for 6 days and really enjoyed the phone.One of the saleing point was because we have had the Droid 2 for over 4 years and its a tough phone. I bent over and the Ultra fell from my pocket no more than a foot or so and the screen cracked the Droid 2 has been dropped many times and never a problem the Ultra has a week screen, We were advised that we had 30 day to purchase the optional insurance so we thought the current warranty would cover any problems we may have but that we were told that's not the case. Now we are stuck in a 2 year contract and a phone with a bad screen. This would be a great phone if you would make the glass stronger.
What are my options for this phone the repair cost as much as the phone. I'm sure you will have a recall on the week screen.
