I just came across this case as I was looking for a part for my car, oddly enough. I was wondering if anyone had heard of it, or tried it. It's rather expensive, but possibly worth it.

Nice case. Just like the other back snap on cases.
I would actually like a case like this if it were clear (made by them, as it is very well made).
Personally, I would save your money and get 10 cheaper ones. Many on Ebay. I found some Ed Hardy ones that were $5.
The UltraCases are also cool, Many types.
I am a little disappointed that the new phone is the same, but happy , since I have a zillion cases.

There is a store near me called Fusion of Ideas. Basically they sell invisishield and installation of invisisheild. They also have a ton of iphone cases including some high end ones like Vaja, etc. I saw this Osir (carbon fiber snap on) in a special glass enclosure with a sign reading "handmade case" but clearly labeled Osir. It was selling for $125 :eek:
I'm sure it is the same one that is selling on Osir's website for $55. In any case (no pun intended), it was gorgeous.

picked one up just before the 3GS came out. i've been a fan of their CF parts for VW/Audi's so I knew it would be worth the price
damn thing even came with it's own case!

very thin

i do, however, wish they made one that covered more like the incipio feather

the weave is amazing. you can see such fantastic depth and adds a lot of dimension

you can see the minimal amount of bulk it adds

here is the added protection i'm referring to on the feather from incipio around the buttons

especially around the bezel. although i've never cared about scratching the chrome

yeah it's just a case, but i get more compliments on it than i do the phone. I debated about selling it for a while because i was too worried about scratching it, but then i said f-it. i've polished/waxed it a few times to get rid of minor scuffs, but now i don't really care. holds up extremely well.

I've got one I'd like to sell. I bought it but after trying it on the pone decided it wasn't for me.
