What's everyones take on how :apple: will handle the bumpers/case refunds & freebies?

I'm saying SERIAL NUMBER log onto the site, delivered in 2-3 weeks. 1 case per serial number....
 
By Serial or Cell #

Didn't think too much about cell number, but it is tied to your iPhone 4 so it could be that way...

I bought a black bumper after Jobs announced they were going to reimburse. People in the store kept asking employees if they were going to be able to get them for free that day in store, the employees seemed really frustrated, like they didn't know what was going on. I guess it is stressful when they dump things on their employees unexpectedly.
 
It'll be done by apple id, serial or email. Can't do it by cell as they are sold simfree!

Then it would almost have to be done by serial. since that is the only way to guarantee one per iphone 4.
 
My question is the other cases, will they be Apple cases or from other companies that strike a deal with Apple. Also will those other cases be cases or bumpers.

this. I think we will be required to order via Apple.com or in an Apple Store to get credit.
 
Do you guys think they'll give a free case, but charge shipping? I feel like they will.

Yeah. I think it will go sort of like any other order might go, just no cost. I received (the day of the press conference) a complementary bumper for having to return 2 different iPhone 4's. I wonder what is going to happen when I go to get mine at apple.com. I figure the odds are 50-50.

You will be able to get a free case for every iphone 4 you have.
They have no way of knowing the store employee gave you a free bumper before.

It was over the phone but yeah I think your right. If so, I will be getting a color other than black. Not sure which.
