does the iphone 4 cases fit into iphone 4s?

I believe the button layout is identical to the Verizon iPhone 4. So any cases that work with both (my Cygnett bumper does) or are made for the Verizon iPhone 4 should work fine.
 
Check the brand websites - they are updating the info. I checked out Speck yesterday and they said they fit the 4S. I checked otter box and it's broken down by which ones fit which models. Sometimes it works for both 4 and 4s and sometimes not.
 
Give me a minute while I pull my 4s out of my pocket to check. Be right back...

I ordered an Otterbox Commuter case yesterday from Amazon that is for the iPhone 4 Verizon/AT&T phones, so it appears it'll be fine for the iPhone 4S. And it's $20 on Amazon instead of $35 for the iPhone 4S case from Otterbox on their website. The only difference between the two cases is a larger opening for the camera on the back, but the camera is identical in size and position between the two phones, so it won't be an issue.

According to the website for the Otterbox Commuter, it fits all carriers for the iP4 but does NOT fit the iP4S: http://www.otterbox.com/iPhone-4-Commuter-Series-Case/APL4-I4XXX,default,pd.html

Lovely... well it arrives today from Amazon, haha. I suppose the only thing I can do is wait, try it on the phone when it comes on Friday, and return it to amazon if it doesn't fit right. I looked at the two cases though, I find it hard to believe that it doesn't fit the phone... but I won't know til I try.
