Element case
I wrote to this company because they created awesome alu cases for iphone and ipad. And the Ducati sample in there gallery web site is not for sale :'(
Maybe if we are few to ask for they will put on sale the cases...
Here the web link
http://elementcase.com/gallery.html (http://elementcase.com/gallery.html)
and the facebook page:
http://www.facebook.com/elementcase (http://www.facebook.com/elementcase)
that may be something they are making for the DP Accessory catalog for dealers to sell directly....
Pretty slick. Just in time for my new phone. [thumbsup]
How the hell do you get the phone out???
VERY cool, but $80 for a case?
sign me up
Might have to get an Iphone just to get that case.

Ha,check this one. ;)

I'd take one , looks better than my otterbox
me likes but not for $80 bucks.
My freebie case that apple sent me seems to work just fine. When I'm feeling like a fan boy I can stick a decal on it.
It's pretty neat, but I wouldn't buy it with the logo on it unless ducati was going to pay me.
Nice. But, I'll stick to my otterbox.
Spending almost 1/2 the price of the phone to get a case.. no thanks.
I'd rather have the phone a few months/year break it and spend another $200 on the next version.

Except they are $600 to replace outside of a contract renewal.

Everyone knows you can ALWAYS get a new phone and renew your contract at any time.
With ATT I'll get a renewal with a year left on a contract no problem.

Is that true? Currently I'm granfathered in on ATT's old unlimited data plan for $20 bucks a month. My Iphone is beat to shit and I want a new one, but I don't want to lose my old plan. Can I get a new phone without make the beast with two backsing up my contract.
they did it for me for the Iphone 4 and I still had a year left. I think they are still offering the promotion now that Verizon has the phone too

Sure can. They are keeping existing customers grandfathered on the data plan. But, depending on what sort of usage you normally get, it might be cost effective to change.
Ordered the Vapor Extreme AR15 case tonite. I will report on it when it shows up.

Google AT&T unlimited data and see the posts. They are using it as a customer retention tool it looks like.

That they are. If you currently own an iPhone 4, simply call them and ask them to switch you. As DRKWNG mentioned, it might be cheaper to stay with the limited plan if you don't use that much data.

Funny you should ask, showed up today. (address malfunction). Not much too it, but you can set the
phone down without contact to the phone itself. Tiny little allen screws, took a min to get it on.
Makes the phone more comfortable in the hand.

Yeah, I don't know why it says that. The iPhone 4 is the same on the exterior for both carriers.
There are a few minor differences, mostly related to the location/orientation of the buttons on the side.

I sat it side by side to a friends, no difference that I could see.
Odd. The reason the AT&T cases didn't work with the Verizon phone was supposedly due to the buttons being in slightly different positions.
The Vapor Pro looks interesting, but at $150 it should be bullet proof.

Well, in the case of this case, ( :D) it fits fine.

I just drank the cool aid and got the verizon iphone today. I went with a cheapo case and will maybe get an "upgrade" this summer for my bday or something [thumbsup] So far I think it is pretty nice.
Do you guys use screen protectors on your iphones? I bought some, but not sure if they will be more hassle than naked.

Like I said, there isn't much too them. It's like a piece of billet that fits around the edges.

that sucks. Makes some sense though since the stainless body is the antenna.

They address that topic with the Vapor Pro, so I'll give that one a shot.
I hate to admit it, but I would buy that Ducati case. I am disgusted by my own consumerism...

Haven't ordered the Pro yet. I keep forgetting. My Father dropped me down the stairs when I was a kid. :D
