Case-Mate,you rock!
Absolutely fantastic. Beautiful case,sharp edges and clean cut. Love how the 'Apple' logo is still shown,a lot of thought must have gone into this. Plus, in the box is a free screen protector-usually you have to pay like 5$ for these,I was so impressed when I opened the box and discovered what was inside. Well done Case-Mate,you have the whole designing case thing in the bag!

Sooner Fans...
Wanted a metallic red (Crimson), low profile, case; looked at the InCase for $35, bought this for $10.
InCase also no longeer offers the crimson; they changed it to puke orange...

LOVE for my 'barely there'
I love my new case! Barely There from Case-mate is the smallest case I've ever had for my iphone 3g, and it is by far my favorite. It fits in my hand much better than those bulky cases and feels more like the actual iphone size. I can even hook it up to my ihome to charge and play music without removing the case (which I've never been able to do). The case is smooth and does not scratch or dent. My scratch and finger print proof cover fits with the case on, no problem! LOOOOOVE IT! Thanks, Case-mate! I'd recommend it to anyone!

Cool Case
Have the wet-look case which is slim, very trendy looking, yet protects the phone perfectly. Have had (3) other people order them after seeing mine. Ordered a second one for my son who wanted one after seeing, then taking mine.
