Well the renders look nice, hopefully they don't turn out to be Element Vapor "case" part II.

dont look like no renders to me. and i really am going to buy the next iphone just for these cases.
didnt notice that but ya unfortunately thats a bit of a turnoff. still, no screws which means easy access to phone but same sexy bumper design.
I like the uniform look versus the Element Case.
Alright everyone. Shameless plug coming. This case is made by a friend's company (I just found out). He has corrected the issue of reception and learned his lesson from the Element Vapor fiasco. He also has a built in non conductive material that helps the reception.
Everything is done and he will have a full retail package coming soon.

Therere screws still except in this case they go in vertically locking in the bottom half to the top half. Kinda like an aluminum slider case in bumper form.
Yes it will be $79 for the case itself. He also has back plates and is stating the quality and fit is better than other, but just to be fair on that judgement, I'll wait till I post pics. I believe case and back plate will be $99. He is well aware of the customer service hassles that ElementCase faced and is gonna try hard to provide a better experience.
I'm liking the design of this, no weird "grip" like the Vapor and others like it. What about screen protectors, any interference?
I'm definitely interested, please keep us posted.

Seriously, unless you have tiny ass fingers your never going to reach the power button, I don't care how then the case is. Have him post up some actual db numbers and then we will see if he learned anything from element. I have been testing the Atomic case and I will actually post pictures of my db readings because people wont believe the numbers when Ryan at Atomic gives me the ok to, they are that good. And the gps works also and they are beautiful cases. Lets see those numbers!!
I do like the look of this case! it appeals to the engineer I never quite became! This one does too!
I don't know when it's going to be available though!

What are the colors available? Can you pls post close up shots of the case's earphone connector opening? Like to see it it accomodates my 3.5mm earphone plug. Thanks!!
I think the price is a bit steep considering others like it have a built in home button and yours does not, and they are the same price. Like the idea but price is a bit high IMHO. I have done cnc of Aluminum for Automag parts, so I know the cost of input and set up. If you lower the price $20 you could still pull in a nice profit with the increase I think you would get in sales. Just an opinion.... you know what they say about those 
Look great though, like them a lot better than other models I have seen... including the Vapor clone

Sorry to ask this here, but which company makes that case?
