Alright, cut to the chase time. This is going to be a bit of a different review from what you’re used to seeing come through most blog sites including this one. I’ve already done a review of the iPhone invisibleSHIELD full body shield a short while back so I’m not going to rehash the entire thing. I could go through all the things I went through before, but to be honest most of it remains the same. So, you’re wondering what am I going to do? Well, click on through to find out!
Ever have a “woohoo!” moment? Ever have one over something like a case for a phone? Well, I just did. For quite some time I’ve been waiting and hoping for the OtterBox Defender for the iPhone 3G to finally get its official launch - and after a couple tense months it’s finally here!
I used the Defender Series on my original iPhone for almost as long as I owned it and absolutely loved the original. It definitely earned its keep when my iPhone took some unexpected falls, a few hiking trips and even a couple trips to the beach.
Anyway, plan on a full review coming up soon! And also keep an eye out for the new colors which are coming soon! Personally, I’m having a hard time deciding between black/yellow and all white!
There’s going to be no shortage of cases for the iPhone 3G in these next few weeks. Sena Cases are the latest leading case manufacturers to announce their iPhone 3G lineup - due to be ready by July 18th, one week after the 3G model launches.
Sena will have five new iPhone 3G cases, including two that are "designed as a combination of a luxury leather wallet and a form-fit custom leather case" (one of these is pictured above).
Looks like lots of the leading iPhone case manufacturers have already got some of their top of the line models ready for the iPhone 3G, well in advance of the new phone’s launch.
iLounge have got a post up with some very nice first looks, with great photos, of 3G cases from Marware (whose C.E.O Premiere is pictured above) and Belkin. Check them out HERE …
Looks like Griffin Technology are raring to go for the iPhone 3G, with a good range of cases and other accessories set to be ready by the 3G launch day.
There site is showing a number of their existing iPhone case options - and a couple brand new ones for the iPhone 3G only - as:
coming soon and will be available in plenty of time for the official availability of iPhone 3G.
Here’s a look at some of the 3G exclusive and 3G plus V1 iPhone cases showing now at Griffin’s 3G page:

So anyone that’s heard me talk on the podcast, or had a conversation with me about protecting their iPhone knows I’m a huge fan and believer in the protection offered by InvisibleShield as well as BestSkinsEver. Granted I have a few other cases and they have their uses - for example the iPhone Defender from Otterbox is the first thing I’m packing on my trip to Florida this weekend - but the one “case” that is always on my iPhone is the InvisibleShield. So naturally the first person Patrick thought to send this announcement from Case-Mate to was me.
Now - I’m not going to get into a debate with anyone about which company is best to buy from. I own a skin from InvisibleShield for my iPhone, I’ve got a BestSkinsEver skin on the iPod Touch and each has their own good and bad qualities. What I will say that is going to differentiate case-mate in this game is that for the $19.99 price tag they are not sending just one - but two skins. Now, for something that’s about as close to indestructible as can be, why would you want two? Well, I know more than a few people who have hosed up the first install so bad that they wished they had a second (note: follow the instructions and its not bad at all)… and second if you do take it off as I just did for my trip, its always nice to start with a brand new one when you re-apply later.
Anyway - there’s my blah-blah-blah. Below is the jabber from the press release thing. Oh and click the You Tube link for some hot steamy BlackBerry blender action. Let’s just say there’s a bad little BlackBerry that gets what it deserves after a typical BlackBerry outage.

One of the first iPhone cases I had the opportunity to review here at JAiB was the Otterbox Defender Series.
Back in December I referred to it as the “SUV of iPhone Cases”. Six months later it continues to be the case I use whenever I need added protection for my iPhone.
Now Otterbox is offering a case that does good for your iPhone AND others.
As the Otterbox site explains,
Having the strength to overcome obstacles can be one of life’s biggest challenges. But imagine the amount of strength it would take to overcome breast cancer. For all the lives impacted by breast cancer every year, the word strength takes on a whole new meaning. The strength to fight…the strength to endure…the strength to heal. By purchasing an OtterBox for iPhone or iPod nano 3rd Generation Defender™ Series Strength case, 10% of the purchase price will be donated to the Avon Breast Cancer Crusade to support access to care and finding a cure for breast cancer, with a focus on the medically underserved. Together we have the strength to fight breast cancer.
When Patrick first wrote about the Xylo Touch-Thru (T2) case a few weeks ago I was intrigued.
While I have used (and liked) a number of cases that place a soft membrane over the screen of the iPhone, this case claimed to place a solid layer of protection over the screen while continuing to allow full access to, and use of, the touch screen.
I wondered if it really worked.
Did it live up to the hype?
For a full review and a chance to win one of your own read on…
I’ve always been a fan of a ‘naked’ phone (PDAs are another story) feel, but I’m pretty wary about keeping my device in my pocket because of how easily it can just slip out as I move about. I’m also quite worried about the wire of my Shure earphone adapter getting messed up as I sit down or move around with my iPhone in my pocket (my friend had to RMA his Shure adapter because of that).
So ladies and gentlemen of the mobile world, welcome to today’s review. Please hit the jump to read words I wrote and look at pictures I took of the vertical pouch case from PDAir.
