In case people did not know this I thought it was worth mentioning that it appears that al the bumpers being manufactured are a little different.
I received the orange one I ordered a few weeks ago and has a distinctly different feel to it than the black one I purchased at the apple store on launch day. The sides of the black one have on the outer edge a different constancy of rubber which is very easy to grip. Does not slide in your hands at all The orange one has very smooth sides on both the inner and outer bevel of the sides. This was noticeable as soon as I held it in my hand and I realized it would be harder to hold on to especially with the new instructions we have been given by Apple on how to hold the phone.
The only case they had on launch was black so that's what I got and figured I would return it when the orange arrived. I for one thought this made a huge differance and will now be keeping my black one.
The new bumpers also came win totally differant packaging so perhaps the first lot was rushed along so they wood be available for launch and for the issues they were no doubt aware of with reception and the need for customers to have them right away.
So check it out and see if the smother ones work for ya or just get the black with no no slip border!
