I'd try to help out, but I imagine it wouldn't be worth it after shipping (from the US). I'd probably wait until Incase gets more in stock through their official site. If you have no luck though, let me know!
hey so has anyone talked to an incase representative about when they will have more in stock? Right now its unavailable.
I sent them an email last Monday asking for the product availability information but I haven't heard back from them yet...
I think I will try to call tomorrow during business hours...
for the people who have the black incase for the macbook pro... can you take a picture as if the user was using the laptop? meaning the MBP open and screen facing the user
i wanna see the boarders of the screen and the keyboard of the MBP

thnx for the quick response! last question.... when the APPLE LOGO is on and shining, is it bright enough to see through the case so on lookers know what i'm using?
i want to keep my MBP protected but I also want to show it off!

Yes, see Nesper's post one page back:

On the white / frosted case it also illuminates around the adjacent area.
And since someone is bound to ask for pics, or is wondering...
(Keep in mind that the lit apple is very hard to capture on camera under little light, since it tends to overexpose the light source - the apple. The first shot is definitely overexposed, and the 2nd is slightly more reasonable, but still exaggerated. It's also hard to capture the adjacent illumination b/c it kind of illuminates at the angle you're looking at the apple from.)
Overexposed:
A little better, but still exaggerated:
wow thats bright, you have to make you screen brighter for the apple logo to be bright as well?
I'm seeing about getting a press sample of these. If that pans out, I'll share my thoughts here as well.
Yes, I forgot to mention that I did turn my screen brightness to the highest setting, for easiest camera capture. So yes, however bright your screen is parallels the brightness of the apple on the back.
Again though, it's not as bright as it appears, the lens just pulled in all the light through the logo.
yes, the logo is powered by the same backlight as the screen. i wish it wasnt though. sometimes i want the apple to be brighter but i want the screen to be dim to save energy.
Wow, that black one is SEXY! I might have to grab myself one of those...
Just to be clear: these aren't made out of plastic, right? They're a hard rubber/sillicone material?

I received my frost incase shell and snapped it on, I was disappointed that it was limited to only 90 degree opening, which bothered me enough I removed it. I am going to keep it, for possible use later on. But as documented before me, it will only open slightly past 90 degrees, with some users grinding/shaving off some of the case to get more of an angle. Otherwise very nice case!
From the pics here, it looks like the screen can be opened further than 90 degrees. Do you have to "force" the screen to open further than 90 degrees with these on?
Mine goes past 90 degrees a bit naturally, and then I can force it a few more degrees, as I've talked about in the past (not sure which page). It seems others have varying degrees of tilt, and then at least one person has shaved down that back corner to allow for more of a tilt.
I can't believe how fast these went "unavailable" on the website. I really wanted a red one too
I think we are seeing that results either vary or some of us are hesitant to push the screen back beyond a certain point where it seems the case will not allow. I myself was hesitant so I decided to shave.
