Soo I don't even have an iphone 4 but I've been closely following everything about it. When I went home for christmas I went to a mall (which is notorious for selling goods you can't find anywhere else... I mean all kinds of stuff.. They used to sell batons- the kind you beat people up with.) Anyways, I'm surprised with all the iphone 4 users in this forum and people lookin for stuff allt he time no one has mentioned these iphone 4 backs yet. Maybe I miseed a thread? pretty sure no ones seen these ones yet tho. BTW, THese look way better in person. (these are candid pics from my iphone 3gs taken as stealth as possible.) I KNOW THAT SOMEONE HAS MENTIONED ALUMINUM BACKS, BUT THERE ARE WAY MORE DESIGNS OUT THERE!

ah, good old pacific mall. i'm due for a trip up there to visit family soon. how much do these run for?

Hm didn't check out prices, but 3gs housings go for 70 so i probally wouldnt recommend buying from them.. especially cuz their easy to install. Your better off going to that sw-box website. However, there are a few that are really cool that I've not found online which is why I shared them here. Up to you really tho, cuz some people are willing to pay 100+ for a white cover which I think is pretty ridiculous and even more ridiculous to give away the black one..

havent checed out that cnn site which I shall do now thanks :)

Well it depends on traffic really, and what route you take lol could be from 30minutes to 2 hours depending where from toronto you are lol

Quite a few torontonians on this board im surprised to see :p

Is it weird that I'm Asian, and have NEVER been to Pmall?

I always say that when my friends talk about it, and they seem really shocked every time =P lol

I actually live within 10 minutes of the mall, so I'm going to check out the replacement covers for the back and see how much they run for. I definitely don't want a plastic one, so alternatives would be nice.

Haha I actually can't stand all the fobs at that place, but for some reason can't resist the draw of cheap china made goods :p

I used to work in the mall but I don't know a lick of cantonese or mandarin; I'll see if I can ask someone I know that works there to hassle them for me if it comes to that.

I'll drop by today and see what they say. This store is along the mall that doesn't have windows right?

Are you serious? haha but are you yellow? definitely do that anyone that works in the mall will know wutsup lol As to which store it is, I took pics from 2 different ones i think. If you got the time I would recommend just going to all the stores that sell them to compare prices cuz theres AT LEAST 3 or 4 that do....
And yeah i know what you mean now I think I actually took pics from the stores in the middle area, not the back area with no windows. Good luck hope you find somethin cool!

P.S. Be careful, I don't know how the whole thing works, but if they tell you to come back while they doin the switch I would just say stay and wait lol Never know what they might try and do.. Switch parts, stuff liek taht haha dont know if they do that with phones but you really never know...

PPS You know where first markham is right? They have some stuff there as well.. Prolly not as much tho.
