171 pages, but just a question I'm sure has been answered already...
Want one of these cases, but does it impact the signal in any way? Either the wifi or cell signal? Even in the slightest?

By testing with field mode, my 4S on AT&T with the Vapor Pro Stealth took a 3dB hit, doesnt effect anything but it happened. Wifi is still full throughout the house as always.
Do you have an iPhone 4 or 4s ? For the iPhone4 the Vapor pro impacts the GPS signal. I dunno about the iPhone 4s.
Did you have the carbon fiber back on? I've been reading that is the reason why there is a signal lost.
Nope, with the CF back I lose at least one bar, that thing sucks 10+ dB for me within my home, totally not worth it.
Though it did look awesome... using a SlickWraps CF back now and love the look
Yeah, it's the CF back from ElementCase that comes bundled with the Stealth Edition. It's real CF, and real CF just loves killing signal :\
I pulled the trigger on the white Vapor Pro and the red Vapor Comp. Hopefully it won't take too long to arrive.
If you ordered from ElementCase directly... expect to wait. If you ordered from TekCases or GearMoxie you'll get them in no time

I ordered directly from Element Case.
I know that the white Vapor Pro has a 5 day waiting period so I know it's not immediate.
Don't know why Element case is taking too long just to process a order. Should order from tekcases next time for faster shipping. I ordered mine yesterday and got today ofcoase I'm local
I just returned my Vapor Chroma to Element Case. They were very fast and helpful with an RMA.
I returned because the build quality wasn't worth the $150 I paid. Edges were misaligned, the rubber pads were smooshed out of the sides of the case and I just wasn't happy with it.

My experience is vastly different yours. I ordered the same case from them and it was shipped the next day. Total time from order to received was about 6 to 7 days, although I was expecting to wait since their web site states 5 days of processing.
