Yes I believe so. They posted a couple weeks ago that there was another option besides aluminum top and acetal bottom and that they were selling a full acetal case but haven't seen or heard anything...
Acetal: an organic compound formed by the condensation of two alcohol molecules with an aldehyde molecule. 😉
Cant send picture messages with e13ctron case
Got my matte dark grey full aluminum e13ctron case today and even got the optional hybrid back in case of signal issues. The case looks great. Signal reception was only 4-5db and everything works fine except one thing. The phone will not send picture messages with the full aluminum OR the hybrid back on. Everything else works great. Text messages, phone calls, facebook, gps, games that connect to internet, all work just fine. As soon as i take the case off, it sends picture messages like normal. What on earth is going on here?
This testing is while in range of my wifi. I wonder if it will send picture messages while on 3g?

Is this going to be a signal killer too? I've loved your designs but always had signal problems so now I have two brand new ones for my 4s! Do you need a test subject? I have a black and white iPhone 5! I just seen your site, I would love a dark gray or black and pink for the wifey! They look good though, hopefully they function just as well!

With the relocation of the antenna I wouldn't see a need for one honestly. I could be totally wrong but I don't think I am and their cases fit nicely in the hand and they are thin. Probably my favorite design honestly.
HOLY HELL WHAT IS THAT THING?!....YUCK! Is it a transformer? Can it transform in a rocket launcher and shoot itself?
