I second that motion. If anyone deserves a break or a bonus its you man.
My two month wait with Element almost put me over the edge.
Got a tip for us?

Lots of promises! So far you've delivered on pics, etc... I can't wait to see how you'll deliver on the pricing. Let's get this party started!!!
Thank you very much. I look forward to seeing your case in person and putting it through it's paces. I must say that it does look like a great product.
Thanks for your reply.
if patients is a virtue, then I might be a savant. maybe, my logic could be flawed. But I do want this case. PINK PINK PINK. I will wait, with everyone else, but I am looking forward to testing it out. Oh yeah, pink isn't just for the ladies, it's my favorite color too. (my wife says I look good in it)
OoooH, aaaaahhhh! thanks I like your sense of humor and attention to customer base. Your having fun with us and making friends at the same time. That is a good business model to follow. This is coming from someone who has no education in business, but I know what I prefer to deal with businessly. I enjoy making up words too.
I gotta say. The more I see of this case the more sold I get. The symmetry in my option is much more favorable here than with the Element. I at times found my vapor uncomfortable to hold. I like the black, silver and gunmetal..........I might need all 3 
I hope Alumacase is going to use USPS so their friends in Canada don't end up paying a fortune in duty.

Maybe you can ask Alumacase if they make a case in your size. The shipping charges would be a bitch though
Come on. You have already proven that nothing can be delivered to you. We will get them to ship it to me and I will bake it in a cake and send it to you. The customs guys won't look in a cake wrapped in newspaper with a big bow on it. they will just think it's weed and leave it alone.

Lol.
On a serious note, I'd like to offer up my services as a beta tester/previewer/guy who gets one first. I just can't decide on a color, so send them all over, except pink, send that somewhere else.
hahahaha...luckylabs got my package here sans cake, bow and file in less than a week...maybe I should just fly down and pick stuff up direct...maybe work for them for a few days too
alumacase, I know u can send stuff in a timely matter...dont dissapoint me...I can't take anymore!!
The past 3 days I've been on MR I keep running into this to see what else is new. Hopefully they release a gunmetal gray color that would look great with either the CF or Kevlar. I love anything Gunmetal. Im sold already on the black but gunmetal I think would hide scratching good if there was any. Deep ones at least.
Thanks a bunch! Just as thepsychopinkie said, you're having fun with us and paying attention to costumer base! That's very important
posting in thread to keep tabs on it...

You should drop more knowledge on Twitter!Just a thought... it would be pretty awesome if another version of this case came out that had:
1. back plate built in so it's not just an aluminum bumper
2. built in side buttons so that both sides can be extremely symmetrical and the volume buttons can be protected as well.

I'm not so sure that an aluminum back plate would be such a good idea. It'd have to be reasonably thick to serve any real protective purpose, and the the case might be too big for most people's taste. If it was thin, you run the risk of a dent inward in a drop, and aluminum denting inward, even just a bit, onto the glass surface of the iPhone would more than likely cause the glass to shatter. I think the best design would be an aluminum bumper style that has a bit more of a "lip" on the front and back that would do more to protect the back/front surfaces in a drop (the higher the lip, the more likely it would keep the glass surfaces from contacting anything during a drop).
@ alumacase - could you post the overall dimensions of the case? width, height and thickness? thanks.
