These are a splurge. You wouldn't think there's a poor economy going on.

They are definitely a splurge - but I suppose the poor economy is relative - no kids, no alcohol or cigarettes means I still have room for some luxuries - but with that logic an iphone 4 is also a splurge. Relative to the total cost of an iphone the cost of this case is fairly small and given I carry the phone everywhere, everyday the cost doesn't bother me personally - I totally respect that for others this is out of reach or an unwarranted cost.

I just got one of these. I was using an Element Vapor 4. This case feels very comfortable in my hand compared to the hard edges of the vapor. They both have their strengths and I expect I will go back and forth.

I was also interested in the Vapour case but was put off by how I thought it might feel in the hand. I have found it difficult to get accustomed to the new sharper shape of the iphone 4 - this vaja solves that for me as it retains the shape but slightly rounds the corners and coast the phone in a solid and comfortable material.

I love it. Gonna order one for the wife's phone.

My only gripe is the 90 days it took for my iPad case. I don't know if I can stand another wait.

It did take the full 45 days - once they get over the launch period for their iphone4 range and the problems they had with ipad demand - I think this will come down to 30 days and under - with a custom case of this quality - I think we will always have to wait :(

Here is a pic with all the other junk I carry round with me.

I just got the grip black/red version off another member on here and I couldn't be more excited. Based on your pictures its going to look great on my phone. going to have to sell some of my cases to make up for the cost :eek: lol but I also don't drink that often or smoke and I definitely don't have children so I also have some room to buy some luxuries.

Beautiful case I'm just not a fan of the open corner back. Even though it's open it still looks good but for full protection I'd rather have that covered.
