Still my favorite case, and works great on 3Gs
I loved this case for my original iPhone, except it kept sliipping off. I bought a can of "grip spray" at the hardware store (used for spraying handles of tools, etc) and that helped a lot, but eventually wore down. I tried using it on my new iPhone 3Gs and it grips VERY tight, but I love that feature. Not going anywhere. I think the grip spray is still helping, but a definite improvement. I really like how you can fold the case back and use it as a stand to watch videos, too. Most under-appreciated case ever. I think if it was made a little more rugged-looking, and maybe in colors, it would be a hit.

Best iPhone Case Concept
After looking for a case for my first generation iPhone for some time (I wanted one with a lid to cover the screen) I came across the casemate flip case. It was somekind of difficult to get one in Germany, but after some weeks of waiting I received one for a price that was more than competitive that time (25 Euros). Since I got it a lot of my iPhone owning friends looked at it with envy ;-)

Love it
I absolutely love this case!!!! It is simple, it gives full access to the phone/keyboard yet at the same time, it prevents the "accidental" calls from the phone. The case also protects the iphone when it falls on the floor or even when I accidentally closed my SUV Trunk door on the phone - the case got damaged but it protected the phone....I just love it...I have not found any other case that works as well as this one

Make this for the 3G!!
Love this case!! Should consider making it for the 3G. I like this case because the whole front of the phone is exposed and it doesn't get in the way of using the full screen like the other cases!!

Case-Mate Leather Flip Case for Apple iPhone Review
"This design still offers front, back, and side protection with hard-reinforced black leather, but Case-Mate offers two different versions, one with Nappa leather, and the other an Italian Pebblestone."
