What case are you preping for the 3GS ?

i had the zagg front and back on mine and i couldnt get the incase slider over the back. I remember reading somewhere that you can peel the rubber strips off the inside of the case and it will work but i never tried it so i just ditched the zagg back.
 
Here is the Incase Frame Case in black, it's called the Pastel Frame Case instead of just the Frame Case.

Is there anything like the BSE or Zagg that covers just the chrome bezel? I want to use an Incase Slider and I am not too worried about it scratching the plastic back but I think it will scratch the bezel if I don't protect it somehow.

Wow I did NOT see those frame case colors, did they just come out today or something?

I just ordered a slimline case from Beyza Cases... not for everyone but I hate buy a nice looking phone and encasing it in something not easily removable. It'll offer protection while the phone is in my pocket, and that's all I'm really after.

I have this case and loved it at first; unfortunately after a couple of months the leather stretches just slightly enough to let the phone drop out easily if held upside down.

It's in the mail.

I wanted something tuff, but I thought the otterbox was too bulky. I also need something more professional, hence the vaja black n' red case.

The only thing I didn't like about those was that the top curved piece that holds it to the iPhone scratches the chrome bezel slowly and in that one spot. Otherwise they are sexy :D
 
I am looking for the least bulkiest all white or yellow [did look at the speck candyshell and the iskin solo] but I'm still undecided.

Any opinions?

I have already ordered an invisibleshield.
 
I am probably going to go with the new Griffin Reveal. It's extremely thin, and the back is viewable with a nice clear plastic material. Check out the case, and also check out a video some guy posted on YouTube.

Power Support Air Jacket or Contour Showcase - ordered both, will return whatever I don't like.

I've had the Contour Showcase on my original iPhone for two years and my phone looks like the day I got it. Unfortunately, the case is big and bulky.

I'm hoping the Air Jacket provides enough protection, but I'm not holding my breath.

The air jacket is really a nice minimalistic case but the lack of bezel protection would be a problem for me. Seemingly not for you.
 
Even though it's a little bulky, i'm going with the Otterbox Defender. I've dropped my current Iphone 3g on concrete, brick, asphalt and just about any other hard surface imaginable. Thanks to the Otterbox, it doesn't have a scratch! :D
 
I went with the speck candyshell, not sure if I'll like it but it's worth a shot.
