Got my Seidio Innocase Black today! (high quality pics)

You know that you have a knock-off Innocase II, right? From your other thread, I could see that the IPH3G letters weren't all capital, as they are on the real Innocase II. Nonetheless, that still looks nice. I think the black tone might look better on the knock-off, I'm not sure about that, though.
Does anyone know if the real Seidio Inncase II has a "cutout" on the inside of the case so the buttons on the left side slide in smoothly and don't get scratched up sliding the case on and off?

Got Two Different Versions of the Same Case
Just wanted to add my two cents to the discussion. I already has a Innocase II for a Blackberry Bold and liked it and the belt clip so I ordered a Sapphire Blue case for an iPhone 3GS.
The case arrived very quickly but like others have reported the bottom section of the case was a much darker blue and it had a light-colored blemish on the surface. I contacted Seidio and they cross shipped a replacement case. Like other have said, their customer service is good but slow!
On the new case the blue bottom section is still a bit darker than the top section but only slightly so it is a keeper.
But the new case also had a new feature! There is a clear plastic window on the inside of the case covering the round hole for the Apple logo. The original case did not have this feature.
Overall I'm satisfied with the case and I also ordered the belt clip for it which is the same design as the one for the Blackberry.

Any way you can post some pics? I'd like to see what the plastic covering the window looks like.
I'm interested in a few pictures, too, as well as the packaging so it's easier to tell which Innocases are the newer versions. I'd be curious if Seidio made any other small changes. I'd assume that Seidio would've updated their site with pictures of the new design with the plastic cutout for the Apple logo. I would've order an Innocase II today, but I want to wait to see if there's an updated version before I order.
I'm very very very interested in this "clear plastic window." I might've found the case for me if this Innocase has that...
Well the clear window is definitely there. This is directly from Seidio's website:
"Clear film protects the Apple logo from bumps & scratches"
I'd still like to see some pics though (both the inside of the case as well as the outside). Seidio's site doesn't have any pics that show the clear film and I haven't had any luck finding pics anywhere else. If someone here can post some pics, that would be very helpful.
It doesn't hang at all. The texture of the case is great - it's "grippy" enough to keep the phone from slipping out of your hand but it doesn't get caught up when you're trying to get the phone out of your pocket. It's not a lint collector either.
I just went to an Innocase from a Rebel Serpent. Couldn't be happier.
Try APS Pro Store.
10% off coupons can be found easily.
But do double check that they are the new Seidio cases with clear plastic behind. I ordered mine 1st week of July and it was the older design.
I've just bought the same black case from Seidio and I really like it (including the visible logo in the back). My only complaint is that it is not very easy to pull the two halves apart when i need to slip it in my charger.
Yeah, nobody sells this in the U.K. Expansys do lots of Seidio bits but not the Innocase for Iphone
I contacted Seidio and they put me on to www.mobilefun.co.uk who at least have it listed and due for arrival 'soon'.
You can buy directly from Seidio but the price is spot on the £18 import threshold, so you could well end up with an extra 15% VAT charge plus the post office bill for holding it...and what with the shipping costs
I found one on ebay from a U.K. seller, but it was a fake....there's loads of fakes out there, and Seidio's reputation suffers a bit from the fact that the fakes aren't up to standard.
Fake Seidio Innocase's have lower case letters on the back iph3G, you can see the a small part of the iphone's chrome bezel along the bottom, camera aperture poorly aligned, bottom section may be discoloured compared to top section, thinner plastic (side lugs snap easier) and the texture is just wrong...although you woudn't know if you don't have the real deal to compare.
As Hawkwind says, Mobile Fun do sell the Seidio Surface Innocase 3g/3gs iphone case now. They have it in numerous colours, too.
