    App info is currently processing and/or the app is not yet fully available for sale on the US App Store.



    I am guessing that people know about this... Here is the link

    Really an app just for this? Surely it would just be easier to do it on the computer.

    It's actually extremely simple. It uses your iTunes account, so you don't have to fill in info such as shipping address, name, number, etc. Maybe three taps and you're done.

    Yeah, I realise that now. It was pretty simple. I suppose it is actually simpler because it can automatically detect whether you are using an iPhone 4 and you don't have to enter any serial number.
    I ordered the Griffin Reveal Etch. I like the carbon fibre effect design on the back.

    I got the Griffin Reveal Etch as well - it is supposedly pretty thin, and I use a case for my belt that the bumper will not allow -

    The bumper is actually a pretty bulky piece of rubber / plastic... Nice looking, but bulky.

    Nice edition, made the process a little better-- like the reception.

    I chose the Belkin, just wish there were more photos online. I had already purchased a chinese knock-off version of the Incase clear and the Griffin Motiff. I use the knockoff Motiff right now and it's exactly the same thing except it cost me 99 cents free shipping, and doesn't have any logos anywhere so it looks a lot cleaner than the Griffin case.

    I just hope the Belkin case has a different feel to the plastic, I'm kind of torn on how this TPU feels.

    Where did you get your case for such a low price? I can find inexpensive iPhone 3 cases, but none of the 4 cases seem to be cheap yet... I would love to know... Thanks.

    At eBay, here's a listing I found. This is the exact case I have right now, and it is exactly the same as the Griffen one. It's also the same as the Best Buy RocketFish case as well, since I bought the RocketFish case and used it until this has made it to my doorstep, then returned it. The main difference? No lame logo print or etching on the back. I also checked the packaging of the cases at Best Buy and of course they are manufactured in Hong Kong, same place this one ships from, except they get marked up by 1,000%.

    It looks like the price went up 2 bucks, it was .99 the first week iPhone 4s were released.

    Oh also, word of advice - if you do happen to buy one from China off eBay, I can only recommend this diamond pattern one. I bought three to compare since they were so cheap

    1. Diamond pattern TPU - Fits perfectly, no issues whatsoever since the diamonds are actually a raised insole, so it has a flush snug fit.

    2. Smoke no pattern TPU - No raised insole, so it doesn't fit flush on the inside back. There are tons of bubbles, I would stay away from these.

    3. Clear Incase minimal snap on knock off - I would also stay away from these. The plastics arent made very well, could potentially scratch your device, also these feel like they would shatter from a slight drop.
