Hi guys,

Just want to add my 2 cents to the topic. I've previously used IS as well as BSE (bestskinsever.com). I can tell you right now that they are both the same, as in material wise. IS comes in a more nicer packaging and what not and BSE all you get is the skin (literally) in an envelope. If you look around IS is selling bout 20+ USD and BSE with the full body protection including shipping is bout 9 USD .. go figure. Ease of installation .. well both of them are a B*itch to install. You really need to have patience. After that I got myself a gelaskin (check them out, kinda expensive but good stuff. Decalgirl got similar products but their designs look cheap) to paste on top of my BSE. The reason why is that both the IS and BSE material ... they kinda feel like orange skin .. and they got the sticky feeling. And if you put your phone in your pocket a lot then its gonna collect alot alot of lint. With the gelaskin and BSE together, i've got myself a winning combo but due to a recent scare of me nearly dropping my phone i told myself i needed a case.

Got myself a Griffin Elan leather case. Its ok .. I mean it works and looks wise, its just alright. Mind you I got the case rather early bout a week after the 3g came out. Finally got myself a Switcheasy Neo. It looks good, feels great but if you're getting one I would recommend you to get the black one. I got the white one and the vertical plastic piece .. it gets dirty. So in a month or two with daily use trust me it ain't gonna be white by then. On another note .. the case works with IS or BSE on. So that's a plus i guess

I'm currently in the states right now and I dont mind helping some of you guys to get some cases from here. Let's just say I'm a nice guy and I'm not doing this for profit, helping my iphone buddies out. No paypal no deal !!! That's final. And please be reasonable with your purchase request.

Black iphone has to match back Neo black color ah? Strange o not if match the white Neo.. This guy got stock for Neo Black.. Was thinking to cancel my IS bulk order.... Neo really no regret ah? IS can't protect if the iphone is drop.. But how bulky is the Neo ?

Guys as much as i love my neo, you guys should check Griffin's Iclear case. I think i might actually get one to replace my neo. Its that good! The problem with neo, you got to play around with it and most of the time there's a little space for it to wiggle since it comprises of so many pieces. Again my 2 cents

Technically not a case but just got my own custom design skin of Snake from the MGS series from skinit.com. There was a glitch on their site the other day so cost me only 2.50 for shipping compared to 20+2.50 USD
