ps- the clear protective sheets for the iphone will def be bought!

thanks alot
 
Honestly...check out iqase.com. I think they make the best cases for the iphone...hands down.
 
Ghost Armor A+! Invisibileshield I dont know?

I just got Ghost Armor today on my 3G Iphone. The guy at AT&T basically made me buy it cause he said it was the best accessory for the iphone. So of course I bought it and it looks awesome! Ive never heard of invisibileshield so i couldnt tell you the difference all i know is that my Ghost Armor is just perfect :D the only part of the phone not covered is the buttons and its totally clear (I showed my friends my phone and they were playing with it for like 10 minutes then said I should get a case for it so it doesnt scratch haha they didnt even notice anything was on it) and the ghost armor doesnt scratch (or so they said I havent tried and not planning to either :p) and it doesnt affect the touch and has a lifetime warranty. So I dont know how it gets much better than this. But anyway If that helps any that was my personal experience of the day lol sorry I couldnt be of more help good luck
 
get the invisibleshield it is amazing and lets you enjoy the slimness of your iPhone without worrying about scratches!

I have it on my iPod nano. No complaints at all. I've dropped it many times, still no scratches. I decided to take it off and only leave it on the screen and click wheel, came off with no residue.
If anything DOES happen to it, there is a lifetime warranty.
 
Get nothing for God's sake! The phone will last longer than you do. And by the way, how can anybody buy anything called "Ghost Armor" -- frigging funny:D
WoW!
 
i ordered the invisible shield the day before i got the iphone.... i will let you guys know how it is.. looks pretty solid though.... the videos the website has sold me on it

I'm waiting on the iskin revo for 3G. until it comes out, I got a crappy little neoprene case.
 
psl6978 - can you Please post some pics of the Shield on your phone? No one has posted them yet.
 
Sidewalk - problem with those is sometimes people reported 'stuff' finding it's way under there in time - trapped - and slowly grinds away at the phone's finish. That's my big worry with those.
 
Just checked out the Ghost Armor website. Looks pretty impressive. I wish I could see what it looks like on a 3G iPhone. (to see how it fits the tapered edges)

For those of you that have the Ghost Armor, does it leave smudges? Is it PERMANENT? (or can I take it off?) From the demo video, it looked like he was literally glueing it onto the iPhone and said it needed to be blow-dried and cannot be powered on for 1 hour after application. That doesn't sound like a temporary skin. (and probably negates the Apple warrenty if I ever need to take my phone in for return/repair, no?)
 
Challenge

See the challenge above from Phil A. youtube contributors?

I wonder if the Ghost Armour can deal with:

1. An axe attack
2. Sulphuric acid
3. Nuclear strikes

Now those would make good video (and might even stop the Windoze clones from moaning about the iPhone. Maybe not)

Mind you, the lack of UK iPhones available might make this an unattractive idea. Just order one from O2 and, well, wait...

BTW for you 'pikeys' out there - if you are too tight to buy a decent case, just wrap your phone in several layers of Sellotape, or a carrier bag. Much cheaper.

Any pictures of the ghost armor install?
 
Ah - It's ok. You just do it over absorbant microfiber or something that won't lose lint/fibers or have your cloth ready when you push the water out. I just did my macbook air and there was water everywhere but it was ok. I even did around the keyboard, etc. Thousands put these things on their devices.
