My iPhone is still in KY, and I'm in Indy. Guess they forgot to scan it. <trying not to panic>
I just want the tracking to say "Out For Delivery" so I can go to sleep
NOOOOOO youll miss the door bell
My iPhone finally made it to St Louis. Now I can get some sleep. Have to work early then I'm back home to set up my new phone!
I think I'm going to leave some signs that say "Knock until someone answers, someone is home. DO NOT LEAVE PLEASE"
I got my iPhone 5 otterbox defender case in the mail today! (sorry if other people have posted theirs, or if there's a thread, I was just so excited to get pictures and let you all see!) It's definitely taller, thinner, and lighter than the iPhone 4S otterbox defender case. To me, it feels like a um...hard plastic rubber...that's the best way that I can explain how it feels...definitely not the normal feeling of the otterbox defender that I've ever had. I was gong to put both next together, but I didn't feel like going to get my DSLR camera out from my car "/
And to top it all off, my iPhone 4S otterbox defender rubber case just broke apart today while I was at work...JUST IN TIME FOR MY NEW PHONE!
Thank god it's less bulkier. How is the clip that holds the phone? on my 3gs (that still looks brand new 3 years later) the swivel broke after 2 weeks. So hopefully they improved thst but from the looks of it it seems the bulkiness is a thing of the past. Going to try to get a white/black or limegreen/blueish one. Otterbox is where its at.
I'm pretty sure the iPhone 5 defender won't have that problem. As she said, the new case is much more plasticy-rubber than squishy-rubber.
I'm in Binghamton and my phone is also sitting in Philly as far as I can tell. I'm thinking mine is probably going to Buffalo if it is flying but at this point is it possible they are simply trucking up here?
I like the new holster, it seems good. Also, Otterbox's customer service really is as good as they advertise. I've gotten like 3 cases replaced between myself, wife, and brother. Whenever they crap out I just submit a warranty claim and they ship me a new one for free
yeah i reread the post it sounds like it may be like the otterbox i have on this POS SG3 im selling which i like

Glad to hear the holster is improved too but never used their CS so its good that they seem to be consumer friendly lol. I just hope one of these stores has one of the colors i want tomorrow.
Im picturing a UPS 18 wheeler hanging a U-turn on the interstate... So mine decided to fake the drive to Bryan! 
I hope you can find colors. In the past I have had a hard time finding more than the very most basic colors in store, especially right at launch. Good luck!
the clip is different from the 4S (not sure as far as the 3GS since I didn't have the otterbox for my 3GS). i personally never used the clip, that's what my purse is for
but here are some pictures of the clip as well. let me know if you want any more pictures of the clip.Attachments
