i recently got my iphone 4 .. and my favorite combo on my old 3gs was the incase slider and an antiglare screen protector ... got the same setup but the screen protector is lifting ..

what case is very similar to the incase one but allows the use of the screen protector >
 
Yeah I had the black InCase Slider and I liked it a lot but it really bothered me that I couldn't use a screen protector without bubbling like crazy so I returned it. It's all a matter of personal preference
 
I like the Incase Slider and I wanted a screen protector since it destroyed my SGP Oleo so I got the ZAGG undersized one that's designed to work with cases. I'm not a fan of the ZAGG but overall the combo works.

When there are some reviews out for it I might pick up an Agent18 EcoShield and go back to SGP Oleo.
 
what case did u end up using ?

I'm using a leather pouch from Fortte rather than another case. The phone itself has Lucky Labs decals on the sides, SGP Ultra Fine screen protector, and Phantom Skinz matte back. Essentially I went as minimalistic as possible without having the phone completely naked

The Seidio Innocases for iPhone 4 are designed slightly loose to allow for screen protectors. I've actually got a SGP matte back protector on mine along with a crystal screen protector, and my Seidio slides on fine with them installed.
 
Try Casecrown. They have some cheap but nice sliders. there is 3 types

Metallic Slider - 5 colors, and has the same feel as the white slider - $15
Polycarbonate Slider - Soft Touch Slider - $20 - comparison of this to the incase - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7VDEQN0LSg4
Meta - Soft Touch slider - $12 - video review here - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KOc4YmNo7Zs

The prices are before the coupon code. Use code MEM20OFF and get them even cheaper

The OP is wanting a slider case that doesn't bubble the screen protector. The Casecrown's are good cases (I have the black Slider), but the Meta won't accommodate screen shields. The Sliders (both the polycarbonate and the Metallic) will accommodate screen shields, but it's because they have no lip around the screen (i.e. they sit flush with the screen), giving no "lay on the table" protection. That is their only drawback.
