Please post links.

Also, are you worried about them not fitting properly since the iPhone 4 isn't out yet?
 
I will have to look when I receive my I4 but I dont think I want to put anything on that beautiful screen.

You'll need to, unless you can afford to replace it every few months or so. The new design is amazingly beautiful. HOWEVER, the new design has the glass front and back sitting on top of the side bezels, not into it like the iPod Touch or iPhone 3G/3GS. Therefore, one small drop, the screen shatters. Someone did a drop test on it with parts available for repair. They had the stainless steel bezel frame, battery, and front and back glass. From 3.5 feet, straight down the glass withstood two drops before it shattered. Why do you think Apple was so quick to offer a bumper case for it? Great designs sometimes come about due to lack of engineering. Marketing decides 90% of everything. If they wanted the design, they had to sacrifice other areas. Ill still buy one, but def putting it in a case, with cover.
