i think there are plenty of cases to choose from. very easy and simple process with all information already filled out! i ordered the black bumper.

 

[i hate phones]

do you guys think they'll add more cases?

debating whether i should jump on this or hold out a bit...

 

[rsnaider]

3 to 5 weeks, but Black Bumper on the way.

If Apple has already refunded you for an already purchased bumper, what does this app do? Does it say that you do not qualify?

Says subject to availablity and subject to change I think. It's such a slap in the face how on the gallery pics of the case how they have pics of white iPhone.

They won't you can count on that.

I wonder how they are going to manage to weed out people who were already refunded and try to scam for another free case.

Which one of the 3rd party cases is better or more $$$. Isn't the Belkin a name brand one???

 

[Syk]

Thanks for the heads up. I thought there was going to be a web form.

I agree the case selection isn't the best but I guess the Bumper will do.

Till I see what the Seidio cases really look like

I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't. In the Accessories forum there's a thread on free bumpers and it seems that people are getting refunds on multiple bumper purchases. Not one per phone.

By email address probably.

Belkin is a very good brand name. They make a lot of electronic/computer products. I'm on a Belkin wireless router right now.

"We are unable to process your request. Please try again later" - anyone else getting this?

I have two iphone 4's on my account and its only letting me order one case. What do I do to get my second?

I would try setting up a different email account and password in itunes on one phone.

I would assume you'd need to download the app on the other phone & go through the ordering process again with the second device.

I think so too. The T&C explicitly states each UNIQUE iPhone needs the app to to make the purchase.

I'm wondering this exact same thing . . .
