Well just to end the thread I thought I would update you with what I think of my now delivered, and fitted Case Mate Jett Metal Bumper blue case.
The case came intact with no damage as some have suffered.
The fitting of the case was simple and without hiitch which is because I followed the online instructions, as fitting this by not hooking up the top first can cause the top part to break !
Nice touches like the case mate name on the inner lip of the 30 pin dock and on the side of the case are nice, and not garish.
I like the way that each front corner is raised to give lay on the table protection with the ramaining sides and top lowered to help typing and not hitting the lip when your swiping the screen or scrolling.
I have had NO signal loss and NO 3g or Wifi loss either, even when ive tried the death grip where the plastic bungs are.
On the subject of the plastic bungs some have said this is a weak point in the case, and can fail. Well time will tell regarding this.
The blue version is a nice deep colour, with a really nice sheen on it.
Ive also ordered the black colour through the USA amazon site as weirdly enough black is unavailabe thro the uk site ??
Appros 2-3 weeks shipping time to the Uk.
The metal buttons for the volume + - , sleep /wake and mute are all good quality machined parts, and are very tactile resulting in them feeling like they are part of the phone.
The look and feel of the case is nice and screams quality and looks more expensive than its Uk price tag of £30 and $60.00{inc shipping}.
