What protection do you have on your iPhone?

I currently have the Incase Frame Case.
 
no case so I'll let others peruse that thread.

just a piece of gaffer tape

I think protection ruins the whole experience.

Starting to feel that way too. Well at least cases. I have an incase slider. Coming from no case on my 2G I really hate this already.

I also have an invisible shield front only. Thinking about buying the whole invisible shield case and just getting rid of case.
 
Steady hands and a watchful eye are my protection. I've dropped it a few times, and it has a few nicks, but it doesn't bother me that much. As long as the screen is fine, I'm happy.
 
I really liked going naked, the only thing that bothered me was how "slippery" it got. I never really was fond of cases, but I thought I'd give it a shot. So I ended up getting a Reveal case, and am actually really happy with it. I like the "penguin" look it gives a white iphone, and it doesn't add much bulk at all.
 
I have a Capsule Rebel, and a Power Support Crystal Film. I also have an incase frame case that Apple was nice enough to give to me for free. However, I don't use that case. It's collecting dust. LOL.
 
I'm running a Zagg I.S. on the screen and an orange iFrogz. But after 2 years of a naked 2G, I'm thinking of getting a full body I.S. The iPhone is way too beautiful to keep locked away
 
iPod sock. Keeps the pocket lint out of the dock connector, mic and speaker plus let's me use it naked. It's also safe to wash and dry.
 
I like the looks of my white iphone too much to keep it in a case. But, ONLY for resale purposes, I will protect it with the Zagg InvisShield. I know I shouldn't think about selling my 3GS right now, but in reality, I will when next generation iphone comes out. That's just me.
 
But doesn't that piece of tape look worse than a few minor scratches on the back?

not when I remove it and sell a mint phone for more than I paid for it.

In the meantime I have a crisp, uncluttered phone that is emminently pocketable.

Totally agree. I used to use the shield too for that same reason but found it resells just as well without. Wasn't a fan of having to replace the shield every 6 months due to it getting dirty.
