I went to bestbuy today afternoon and saw there were very few cases available (few brands).

Only white griffin reveal was there but I picked this unknown bran "RocketFish" smoke color case. It was one of the cheapest and looked great on my black phone.

Since I never heard of this company I am not sure I abt the quality. First hand impression is good though.

If I don't like it I will return it anyways.

RocketFish is Best Buy's brand.

Update:

Don't get the Griffin Reveal. It interferes with the flash. I'm taking it back tomorrow to see if I can find something else.

How are you liking the Ricket Fish case? I think I may head to Best Buy tonight to look at cases and a cheap one would be nice until I can find something good that I like. Does it slip into your pocket very easily?

I got the RocketFish case to tide me over til my Bumper arrives and it is awful. One good thing is that it is really easy to get the phone into it but that it because the case is too large and flimsy. It also means when you take it out of your pocket half the time part of the phone slips out. When you're holding it, it you squeeze it sometimes feels like the phone is just going to roll out. It's awful. That said, it doesn't look that bad from the front, but it is pretty thick.

I'm returning mine as well. The only thing is the selection is not that great now. The only thing that I may like is the iFrogz Luxe case.

Ooh, OK... maybe I'll pass..... Thanks for the feedback. I may take a look at some of the other ones at Best Buy then.

You must have a different Rocketfish than me. I only got mine as a temporary case until I get a bumper or a seidio but mine definitely doesn't allow the phone to slip out.

I went ahead and stopped by Best Buy Friday evening and got a Rocketfish case as a holdover till I find something better. They have two different styles in the Rocketfish brand. One looks big and bulky. It is the one pictured earlier in this thread. The one I got fits very snuggly on the phone and doesn't add much bulk at all. The buttons are harder to push, but maybe it'll get easier as I break it in. I got the one that is "Smoke" colored for reference, and it is comically labeled as for an "iPhone 4G". As if there wasn't enough confusion already.
