I just got my case and it is the same as the old case I got for my original iphone.


Which one did you get? I'm really interested in the SP. I've never seen one in person and know they're fantastic, I'm just wondering if I will like the extra bulk. I have tiny hands.

You must have ordered the old style case. These new 3G cases only came on the site 1 or 2 days ago. I just ordered mine now I have the dreaded 45 day wait until I get it :(
Well worth the wait though.....by far the best case I have ever used.

I got (ie ordered i meant to say) the Ivolution top for the 3g phone at lunch time (5 hours ago).

I have small hands also and the case is very nice indeed. I got the all black one but realised that if my GF has my phone (with the same black case) then i might confuse them. Have to see about changing it slightly.

do the vaja cases flip open for the screen while staying intact in the case or do you have to physically take the iphone out to use it?

No you just flip it open from the top (near the mic input) and the bottom is the hinge. Very nice case and so many people have commented on how nice the case is when i show them the phone. quality item IMHO.
 
For those of you who are getting the Invisible Shield, are you guys just getting the front screen or the entire body kit?

I love Invisible Shield and will probably place an order to get me some shields :D

I ordered the whole thing. I'm a bit worried about the back one and it not going on right, but it seems like it'll work well.
 
Can anyone explain to me the difference between the iVolution SP and the iVolution Top? They look the same to me...or at least they seem to have the same functionality...
 
Agent 18 Eco Shield. The 3G version will come in White, Black or Green (made from recycled plastic). Its the BEST case I've ever used on my original iPhone. (compared to my experiences with Speck, iSkin, xSkn & Griffin)
 
I am currently using the Griffin Wave for my iPhone. I like it alot. It is a hard rubber case so it won't stretch out like a silicon case. It is less slippery than the naked iPhone, and it doesn't add much bulk to the phone. They are also advertising a 3G version as well.

I hope this helps.
 
I'm going to be a first time iPhone owner when the 3G comes out and i'm planning on getting the Invisible Shield for it, and i want to get a belt holder for it so i can just slide the phone out whenever i want without having to keep it always wraped up in anything but the Shield. I haven't seen one quite like that, has anyone else?

I haven't used this exact case, but I have ordered from this vendor through Amazon. If all you really want is a belt clip, no additional protection, this might work: http://www.eforcity.com/swivel-holster-for-apple-iphone-black-cappiphohol1.html

I have an invisible shield on order, and will probably pick up an EcoShield from Agent 18 to go with it. I love the black EcoShield on my current iPhone.
 
Finally found a beautiful leather sleeve at a reasonable price

Good case price and good shipping. This is the case I'll use when I want to attach the phone to the outside of my purse. Otherwise, it will be kept naked in my pocket. :)

I have a wallet from these guys that hasn't worn out in the many years I've had it. I just ordered a $9 suede sleeve from them. I just emailed the owner and he told me that their current one will work perfectly with the new 3G iPhone. $10 priority mail for a grand total of $19.00. Slower, lower price shipping is also available.
 
I'm still torn on what type to get, mostly due to this concern.

Phones get dropped. It happens.While I don't intend on dropping the new iPhone, the likelihood of it happening is there. Am I dreaming this up, or didn't El Jobso say at WWDC that the new front of the phone is a hard plastic, and not glass like the original?
