As long as you have some sort of confirmation # from paypal or the site you ordered from. Also provide me the name of the site if it wasn't switcheasy.
the transaction ID is the number paypal gives you when you make payment. If you ordered from another vendor just provide me the sites name and the order#. Thanks again for all your help guys, I hope to keep the reviews coming.
lol, that's pretty far from Florida
i ordered the "milk" case last night, can't wait to get it.
no offense but that looks bad....looks rubbery and the red home button is really bad...just my opinion

Yeh, oops. Forgot to look at your location. But if your ever in WA you know where to get em.
I just got mine today.
love the feeling when I touch it
looks good! I almost got the orange, but went with the milk. how long did shipping take?
Cool, I should be expecting mine either today or tomorrow then
aha... you'll love it
I received mine a couple days ago - not particularly happy with it. To me, it's a standard silicon case - I like the home button change, but it still fits too loose. I'll still keep it, I like it better than my Rebel which has a saggy bottom (idea behind hard+silicon is nice though) ... Cheap, it comes with nice static screen protectors and I'll probably use it if I need something like that - but the PixelSkin fits much better IMO.
I just got mine yesterday too. Chocolate (I think that's what the Brown is called). It looks and feels great, but am a bit dissapointed the sides aren't as tight a fit as I expected. The top and bottom are fine though.
I'm actually pretty happy about the button. This way when I pick it up, it's obvious which way is up/down. Before I often have to spin it around in my hands to get it orientated correctly. Obviously not a huge deal, but in my mind it's makes a difference and makes it a bit easier.

In this picture, looks like the port cover is now attached to the case. Is that correct? Mine is not attached. I have a Milk colored one. Can you confirm if yours is attached? That's better if it is...won't get lost. I wonder if I can exchange mine if so??
I have just encountered a strange issue. I just took my iPhone out of my Stealth Colors to give it a clean, and it has these scuff/smudge marks in top corners of the iPhone. Now I now for a fact that these were not here before I put it in, and I'm thinking that the case may have something to do with it.
The iPhone does have a clear plastic coating (the outer layer that you touch), and often when I put the iPhone in my pocket (with the case on) it doesn't go in smoothly and the case kind of slides up on the phone during the entry, then goes back into position once it's actually in the pocket.
So I think that the silicone of the case is waring on the outer coating.
I may be wrong,

How Colors case work with Rebel/Neo's Video Dock Stand and the Universal Dock Adapter
I received my Colors yesterday. It took about 6 days from ordering from apsprostore.com to receive the goods (in am in UK so thats pretty good). I got the Bleu and Mican and I love them. They remind me of toy phones. The texture feels like the surface of a peach.
Anyway what I want to share is how this case will work with the Video Dock Stand and the Universal Dock Adapter that came with the Switcheasy Rebel or Neo.
With the Video Dock Stand, there is no problem at all. If you look at the picture with the back of the phone on the stand you will notice the shape of the case doesnt sink perfectly into the stand but this is not a problem as the stand supports the case perfectly well and very sturdy too.
With the Universal Dock Adapter, there is no problem inserting the phone+case into the Dock Adaptor but the jelly bean button gets in the way from pushing the phone completely in. This means you could get a bad adaptor connection if you insert it with a tilt too much to the left or right. When this happens you will see the message on the phone This accessory is not made to work with iPhone and ask if you want to turn on Airplane mode. You will just have to re-insert the phone straight and as far as you can until you get a good connection.
The other issue with the Dock Adaptor is the fact that the colors case is thinner then the Rebel/Neo so there is a gap between the back of the case and the Dock. This means there is little support on the back, and if you operate the iPhone whilst docked you could risk damaging the connector on both the dock and iPhone. To avoid that risk you could add padding in between the gap. I managed this by making a rubber strip using electrical tape. I start off stacking 6 layers of tapes on top of each other at approx 6cm long. From this, I cut two strips appox 0.5cm in width and stack one on top of the other. So I now got a strip with 12 layers of tape. Stick this strip in the Dock Adapter like in the picture and it seems to do the job.

I got mine on Thursday and I absolutely love it! The jellybean button is actually really nice!
Here's a few pictures of the Milk.
