I totally do not understand people who put cases filters and other crappy stuff on their gadgets. It completely defeats the purpose!! Why would you put some crap on your well designed and built device? You pay money to get the filling of aluminum or other nice iphone shiny materials, and to see its beauty as it is, not to spend more money to hide it in some sort of condoms. Will get scratched sooner or later? so what - that is the way it is. Do people who puts this stuff take it off in the evenings at some super safe location to admire build quality and not yet scratched device? Apple did not put anti scratch ******** in the factory, neither you get this stuff in the box, there must be a reason don't you think so? Just enjoy your iphone don't put crap on it :)
while i find your rant a bit extreme and over the top, i must agree... haha. I like having my iPhone naked. The screen is pretty impossible to scratch and I'm not going to have a fit if I get a few scratches on the back...
 
Im going nude for most of the time, but I've just ordered a "bag" for my iPhone for while it's in my backpack, the car, charging for the night, etc.

I've just ordered one too! :).. I took the "Le Vert". Did'nt like the look of the kimono (although it is limited which is cool)... I'm from Denmark and the shipping price was the same (6 bucks) so quite cheap if you ask me..

How long does delivery usually takes on international shipping?

And drakeshipway; is this you first one or do you have any experiences with 'em at all?
 
I bought a Griffin Wave for my new white iPhone and promptly dispensed with the plastic bit that goes over the front touchscreen. I prefer my touchscreen to be tactile the way Apple designed and created it. Right now I just have the back section snapped into place and am going to try that for a while, as I really don't like the looks of the iPhone with the front border piece. Last year I bought a couple of different cases for my original iPhone and one of them works quite nicely for the new iPhone as well, so I'll use that from time to time, too. I definitely do not want to put any sort of "shield" over my iPhone. I also like just carrying it "naked," as it feels sooo good in my hand or when I touch it in my pocket!
 
my incase i purchased at apple got real loose and messed up my first iphone by scratching up the back when sand go in, don't ask. But it is snug on my iphone 3G. Any problem with this cheap out.

Yes, my old Incase fits perfectly. But this time I'm not going to let that POS case ruin my phone again so I'm putting a clear skin/shield on it THEN useing the Incase for when I'm in a more rambunctious situation.
 
Agent18 Clear case... will keep the black back smudge/scratch free and show off its sexyness

plus it's dockable with the case on w/o having to remove any little pieces off the bottom!

Hey,
Are there holes on the bottom for the bottom speaker? If not, I guess you could put it in upside down but then the earphone input would be on the bottom.

Thanks
 
I really like horizontal belt cases, like the iQase PIVOT

Can anyone tell me if the "iQase PIVOT" fits the iphone 3g? They only list it as iphone right now.
I like that the iQase PIVOT can rotate, has magnets, and a really clean design.

I also saw the Marware "C.E.O.™ Premiere for iPhone 3G"
http://www.marware.com/PRODUCTS/iPhone-3g-cases/iPhone-3G-C-E-O-Premiere

It seems ugly, I just want a simple black cover, not the dots and stuff (if it was like the OLD iphone Marware case, it would be perfect.. though it would have to have magnets instead of velcro).


It is difficult to find many reviews on horizontal cases in general.. anyone have some direction? I am new to iphones in general, so I am not that good on where to look.

Thanks,
Nate

I dont think there is any holes at the buttom. But you can proberly hear it anyway :)

Its just a "sleeping-bag"
 
silicone case

There are many differently in market,but I choosed the soft one.
because I thought silicone case is warmer than plastic case.
I bought Bone collection's bubble case and cube case.
Bubble case means there has 4 envelope at 4 corners,
it's can protect my iphone even it slipped from my hand,
fall down on the floor.
Certainly it has extremely many colors,but i like pink one.
It's young lady's color.
so maybe u can take a look~ :p
 
I think I like the look of the contour. I will put on the bodyguardz and then the Contour.

This should give good protection

Don't forget to buy some gloves too. Then you might also want to wear some protective glasses to protect your eyes against UV reflections from the screen. If I were you I'd actually get a robot to hold your iPhone and then I'd control the robot from a remote control. But then I'd want to protect the remote control with a plastic skin and then I'd shock proof it with a full body case. I love my iPhone soooooooooo much.
 
Picked up a Griffin Elan Form (black) from the local BestBuy today. They only had one left in stock. I'm liking the case so far. Being able to remove the bottom to dock is an awesome feature. Has a tight fit also. Thumbs up!
 
i ordered the invisible shield last week , now after reading alto of reviews, im a little skeptical.... the ghost armor sounds like the right choice.... does anyone else have experience with the invisible shield?
 
Like everyone else, I'm in the market for a case/protection for my new iphone 3g.

I've ordered the ghost-armor based on some reviews here and on some blackberry forums. I liked the pictures posted here. There isn't nearly as much orange peel or noticeable texture as the invisible shield. That orange peel would drive me absolutely nuts, but maybe I'm just more sensitive to it. Some people probably don't really even notice it - just like they don't on their car's paint.

I'm thinking about getting a rubberized case also for times when I'll be in situations where I feel I have a higher chance of dropping it (working out, etc). I'm hoping there are some good options here that will fit over the ghost-armor. The "Incase Protective Cover" (http://store.apple.com/us/product/T...ssories/cases&mco=MTI5OTQ3OQ&p=1&s=topSellers) from the apple store looks pretty good to me, but I'll have to check it out closer at the store.

Just an FYI for everyone too - while I'm waiting for my ghost-armor to arrive, I found that my oakley sunglasses soft case (the silk feeling one) fits my iphone rather perfectly. Makes me feel better about having it in my pocket at least until I get my hands on a "real" case. So if anyone is nervous while case shopping, you might already have an oakley (or another soft sunglasses case) on hand that you can use in the mean time.

I'll let you guys know how the ghost armor works out after I get it. I'm thinking that if the screen portion doesn't work out well for me, I'll probably take that part off and go with the Power Support Crystal Film. Or if the whole thing sucks, I'll try the BSE next.
 
that incase protective cover says 1-2 weeks ship time :/, i've been wanting that case also, can't find it anywhere available to ship immediately :/
 
Ghost Armor shows the same exact texture Invisible shield and the others have. There's a picture here somewhere.

I call BS and BS on all the newbie first time posters asking about and citing the glories of Ghost Armor - A Company most everyone here has never ever heard about before!
