Accessory Manufacturers Ramp Up 4th Generation iPhone Cases

I have a 3G, I'm waiting for a case to make it look like a 4G. LOL
Switcheasy Reptile will suit the bill. I smell a conspiracy!
Cases are so ugly and pointless. They make the phone larger and make it look generic. I can see CERTAIN circumstances when they could be used... but 80% are unneeded. People just buy into it, waste money.. and make their nice phone look like crap.
Cases are for losers . After I stopped using one with my 3G S I enjoyed the phone much more, so I definitely won't be going back this time around.

Cases are a bit of a joke
Apple products are beautiful industrial design...and besides... the back will be touch sensitive...

Well, there's no up front cost for iPhones. Just the cost of the phone service.
I thought iPhones were free in many countries, including the UK?!
If that's the case, then where's the digitizer? You've seen a dozen photos of the inside of the back...
I'm not putting a case on this one. If Apple releases only Black and White, I'm sending mine to ColorWare.
Please, not that design... it was too clunky
How could you possibly think it's not? That's ridiculous.
Agreed
Unless this is some lame fly-by-night company, I can't imagine they would do this without at least a dummy phone from apple. The last paragraph sounds ridiculous and is outright speculation:
"While these cases don't provide any additional confirmation beyond the original leaks, it does show that some companies are confident enough about the 4th generation iPhone design to begin producing cases for the product"
Who would produce a case based on photos from gizmodo's leak? If they actually did so, I don't recommend buying one.
How can they make a case without having a new iPhone

Yep. People may want to get their hands on one before deciding it's clunky. That's more of a tactile experience. It certainly doesn't look as ergonomically pleasing to the hand, but how it actually feels may be much different. Looking at photos by itself it looks larger and awkward to the hand, but when posed next to a 3GS, it looks smaller and therefore maybe not so "clunky".
Ring Phone
I hope Steve builds a RING Phone like the one on "Chuck" THAT would drive the GAWKER - VIET CONG axis into the special hell they deserve.

I thought the same thing when I got my first iPod touch. When I found myself occasionally dropping the thing, I caved in and bought a silicone case. It really aided in handling.
I agree that cases are ugly, but they certainly are not pointless.
I'm in Japan. Here you pay for the phone over the 2-year contract term. If I continue using the same phone after that the monthly payment obviously drops by the amount of the instalment. Financially it's better to keep the same phone until it breaks.
