Cracked iPhone 4 glass. Visa coverage?

I bought my iPhone 4 with my Visa card and just cracked the back glass. My understanding is that the Visa protection is basically against "act of God" type of stuff. So what would be construed an "act of God" that would result in cracked rear glass???

I got a small crack in mine and I read on some of these forums that some Apple stores were replacing phones with cracked screens so I thought I'd try it. Sure enough. They replaced my phone with a brand new one at no cost. I was told the boss decided to cover it because, "The glass should have been stronger than that." He said that because I didn't actually drop my phone to get the crack. I had the phone in my pocket with NOTHING else but my Apple headphones. It must have been the headphone jack because you could see a small chip and then the crack. Kind of like a car windshield. Good luck to all of you who crack your screen.
