....hmm, not a bad idea - might try the silver on the front and black on the back when i get home tonight
I just wanted to say, it has been a little over a month now with my JETT and I still love it like the first day. I usually get cases and keep them for a week or 2, but I really think this one is going to make it the long haul. I have had 1 drop since getting it and you wouldn't even know by the looks of it. Best phone case I have ever had.
I don't have those headphones, nor do I know what they are but all I can say is the headphone jack hole is pretty deep, so I'd guess most headphones wouldn't work with this case.
many companies make head phone adapter plugs that are about a inch long that are small plugs on one end so they will fit in all cases with small holes

Coupon Code for 20% off, good for 30 days after post (April 4, 2011): CM02-AR20
EDIT: Sorry, guess this code is NOT VALID. It came with a replacement case so no dice. I've emailed case-mate for a coupon code anyway and maybe I'll get one back. Will update post if I do.
EDIT: Code IS VALID for CUSTOM CASES ONLY. Good for 30 days.

Code didn't work for me. I'm really itching to switch to this case once my otterbox defender "training wheels" come off
This case really rocks. Looks and feel smooth all around. Nice raised corners for table face down use. It just looks like something Apple would make. If your super concerned about signal loss, wrap the metal band with 2 layers of lucky labs. I've done mine just for the heck of it to see if it still fits the case, and yes it does. Fits great. No signal issues for me also.
Ha, I was wiping it down too aggressively with a damp cloth, then whoooops...there it goes in the air. Hits the door, but bounces of to land on carpet. I thought It was scratched up, thank goodness wood vs metal is no contest. Polished off the paint from the door and good as new.
I'm not really following the love for this "case" here... What exactly does it protect the phone from? The front and back of the phone are open to scratches, and the metal sides are covered with... metal? So really, all it does is just make your phone bigger...
What am I missing here??

I think most like the look of the case. I had it on my phone for less than a day and I took it off and put it away. I doubt I will ever use the case again.
I liked the look and feel of mine when I got it, but I'm ultimately more a function guy than a form guy. I like my Zerochroma Teatro too much to take it off of the phone.
Anybody interested in a red Jett? I have the front half of a gray one as well. I mixed them to do Ohio State colors but lost the back gray half.

Well I have had the blue one for a few months now. Never been dropped or anything with one exception the carpet in my living room.
Anyway I went to get mine out of my side pocket of my jeans (carpenter pants) and I noticed when I did something was loose.
I looked a bit closer and one of the PLASTIC tabs, the one on the side near the dock, had broken and now the case just separates there.
I contacted case mate and they wanted pictures so I took some and sent them in.
A day or two later they said they were sending me a new one and I did not need to return the old one.
The new one looks the same with the exception of the buttons are silver instead of gray so I used my old ones. It also was changed in that the case mate logo on the side is now the color of the case so its harder to see. I like this better.
I don't like the fact that the plastic tabs broke so easily, I guess Ill give it another try, hopefully this one lasts a bit longer.
If anyone needs some spare parts I have another whole case with the exception of it has one of the black tabs broken. If you have damaged blue pieces and can swap the black tabs it would be good for that. It also has all the screws and the buttons etc.
If you want it Id take 15 bucks for the whole thing. Just send a PM.
