personally think alumacase looks better than the vapour, its thinner as well and its been tested to have minimal impact on signal strength. its not out yet their official site is still under construction but they do have their facebook up. http://www.facebook.com/alumacase?flyingspaghettimonster=ts#&...lumacase?flyingspaghettimonster=ts

I think a case is just a case... why spend 100+ when you can spend a 20+ one. As long as you like the looks of it... you're still getting the same function.

Looks and quality are two diff things. If the 100+ and 20+ case are the same quality then it's ok but if they only look the same then I wouldn't waste my money on it.

I don't mind paying for quality as long as justified... but chances are if you drop the phone also still kena... regardless of what case you use.

Vapor user here. I don't see any issues with it. If u have the vapor, look inside the railings and u would see some rubber like spacers placed at the corners. The ver1 have less spacers and ver2 they have added more. This is so the the vapor has less chances in touching the ip4 metal antenna. Also don't over tighten the screws. Cheers.

I wanted the vapor case. But I have not gotten a purchase email from them yet. A guy posted on my vapor buying thread about the atomic case. So I decided to purchase one off their side and ship it over to malaysia. I tried with 5 different credit cards and not even 1 went through. That made me pretty upset and I don't think I will get it from them. Will probably wait for element to email me or join one of you guys if you plan on ordering.  Even emailed the company and I got a 1 liner reply  Guess they didn't take me seriously. Might give alumacase a shot if they release it before element emails me  No harm trying out.

How much is the shipping charge to Malaysia? Do you know the shipping charge at US? Might order and ask my colleague to bring back for me.

It's just a piece of plastic ... 100+ ? not likely. I used a Rm10 screen protector on a 3rd gen ipod since December last year until now OK. it does it's job by preventing the screen from being scratched.

Guys, I have 2 Vapor cases on the way right now. I ordered 1 silver/blue and 1 graphite/graphite. I also have 1 carbon fibre backplate that comes with the Vapor. I will be selling all of them as soon as they arrive (should be any day now -- shipping was on the 9th of Sept). If you're interested in reserving one, let me know.
