Good grief people...when you see one person respond...there's no reason to rip the comment to shreds.
I was simply stating my opinion, in the fact of not trying to get my hopes up.
 
on my iPhone 2g I used an incase softcase.. that ended up scratching my bezel.. so i took it off and later i ended up scratching my screen.. Got one of the Matte screen protectors sold in the Apple store.. Used that on my 3G and 3GS as well.. then got the Wrapsol for screen and case protection.. thats was fine.. got a replacement 3GS and just ditch protectors all together.. On the next iPhone I doubt i would use any protection aswell.. I think i like the intimacy.. of seeing the screen in true color.. and touching the phone.. The coating on the screen works pretty well for oil and I havent scratched the screen yet..

Thank you for the lesson on how to respond in a forum. :rolleyes: I will refrain from offering you similarly unsolicited lessons on how to do a minute's research before posting your baseless speculation.
 
in all reality guys, it doesnt matter what it looks like, how many of you are seriously NOT going to have a case on it, ultimately you wont see the design
No case here. I'm not buying another case again. A waste of money. I've bought case after case for my 3G trying to find "just the right one" only to discover that none of them are "right" because the Iphone feels perfect as-is. Haven't had a case on it in 6 months and there aren't any more scratched on there than were already on there (some gained via a case that rubbed on the back, o the irony!) I'm confident the new one is going to be even less scratch prone. I'm just not going to worry about it. It's a phone that I use, I want to enjoy it how it was designed, not cover it with ugly plastic.

Never had a case for my 3G. And if the rumors of a scratch-proof ceramic or glass back are true, there will be no need for cases on the iPhone HD.
 
How does that work do you think? Will it help to block out sounds when your listening to music or just for calls?

The noise-cancelling mic "listens" to the ambient noise while you're on the phone. The iPhone then electronically subtracts much of that noise from your outgoing call, so your voice sounds clearer.

Of course, Apple could also easily add features like automatic earpiece, external speaker, and ringer volume control depending on ambient noise level. SMOP. (Small matter of programming.)

Ok thanks, I hope they add all of the above, would be cool.
 
Those 'new' pics are merely ones of either that fake Vietnamese version (no internals visible through the connector) or the very early development model. Plus, it looks to be thicker than the model Gizmodo had.

My money says this is a 'replica' made in Vietnam. 99% of all replica products (high-end) or not come from SE Asia. If it were real you would have seen the dock connector internals. This guy is probably making a fortune off of selling these photos to various tech blogs.
 
Well, after putting the image through some photoshop work I think there are some internals visible.

I'm tired of seeing the damn thing. It's making the wait feel longer.

I miss the days when we didn't see anything until the actual event! :)

I've read all the articles, I've seen all the leaked images...and yet, I'm still due my opinion....which last I checked wasn't speculation.

Edit: ...and I've seen all the numorous threads on the front and rear facing cameras...so no need to search. Just making my opinion a statement for the intrawebs.

+1000 points for your kindness.
 
If Speck comes out with a See-Thru for this design, you should be pretty well able to see every design change made. I just put one on my 3GS after not having used one for probably 4-5 months (because they're a MOTHER to get off...I'm probably going to regret the decision to put on one before day's end) and was shocked to see again how, well, see-through it actually is. It's completely transparent (other than the bits around the bezel, which are like a frosted silicone-ish material). Just FWIW. :)

Never heard of it, do you have a link?
 
Too bad the Apple store won't be selling the screen protectors for the phone. I'm looking forward to Zagg making a shield for the new iPhone and I will be @ Best Buy getting it installed when it is released.

One sec...

There you go. The one I was really referring to is the clear one; that's what I put on my 3GS this morning. I'm not exaggerating when I say how hard they are to get off, though...the last time I tried to take one off, I thought I might crack my phone. Which, of course, begs the question of why I put it back on today. Sigh. But it looks cool at least, especially with the skin I have on right now.

You mean the "fake" version that had the A4 processor in it? :rolleyes:
 
Wife is mad

I like the design, I cant wait for June 7th.

My wife got onto me because she says I am more excited about the new iPhone announcement on June 7th than our 5 year anniversary thats on June 4th. I told her she could get it for me as a 5 year gift :D
 
I like it. And I'm one of the dumbasses who doesn't use a case. I don't like 'em.

So i have a cracked screen and a tore to hell back to show for it... Anyone want to buy my 3GS??
