@mannequion, I've not seen any of the more-things.com stuff sold at the physical stores. Have however purchased stuff from them and pretty happy with my purchase. If U want something different, perhaps U could get a few people to combine the purchase and save some $ on delivery.
@owikh84, Er.. what's RMAed? I absolutely HATE the iShield cause it turns so yellow it makes the phone look OLD and WORN!

@manchurr, Most casing probably blocks the heat so if U think you're going to be using the iPhone for too long then the next option is to take the casing out temporarily for a bit.

@manchurr, You can get information about the Mophie Air from forummer Jacquie. Her asking price as stated on her GS is RM300. Lots of people like glossy and I don't think there's gonna be much problems holding onto it; I mean, the iPhone is glossy too!

@manchurr, The other option of a battery pack could be the True iV. Jacquie is also selling it.

@denzel88, That really depends on what kind of casing you're referring to. The i3GS fitted with the PowerSupport Air Jacket fits into the Moshi pouch with no problems.

@invisiblelim, I'd been using it since Dec 2008 and haven't had much issues with it [am using the AirJacket with my i3GS though] - and U could always go to the PF Boutique @ Pavilion, KL.

@johnliew, Er.. I suggest U don't try dropping ur i3GS. A friend of mine accidentally dropped his i3G - and ur absolutely right, the screen didn't get scratched, it just cracked!

@ndri11, I got my Griffin PowerJolt during the Mac Discovery Week. It was going for RM99 and I believe the normal retail price is about RM129 or something. It's available at Machines.

@johnliew, Are U saying this Griffin PowerJolt thing comes in different colours *shrugs* I sure wasn't aware but mine's Black anyways. I figured it's cheaper getting this one than the one I set eyes on (don't remember what that's called but that comes with a dock and all) and is price about RM399, close to RM400.

@johnliew, Er.. Invisible Shield?! Er jackhammer84, I suggest against it unless U like ur phone to look 'worn' - the iShield has this yellowish effect and U must be a pro in order to install it right

@teikwing, Someone mentioned the Griffin WindowSeat and xaw5126 confirmed it's available at Machine - dunno what's the price though and if it's a good holder cause no comments yet. @cksia, I've personally used the iShield & absolutely detest it. Will never recommend it - haven't tried the rest so can't comment. beavis68 & neekun had theirs done at LYP and it was pretty good IMO so if Ur interested, look them up and get further details from them. Also if ur planning to get a Mophie Juice Air, U may want to reconsider sticking anything because then it'll be too tight a fit (as reported by stringfellow, harmeet35's brother & beavis68)

@cksia, I believe teikwing had pretty good reviews on the SGP shield. As to the SGP Ultra Thin Casing, I don't quite like it because:- 1) It has that SGP logo at the back with the rest of the text 2) It's got a hole to show the Apple logo (that's just my personal preference coz I don't want dust to get in or get the phone scratched)
An alternative for one without the hole is PowerSupport Air Jacket but that is retailing at about RM139 (I think) and comes with 2 screen protectors so U dun haf to buy the screen protector separately.

@teikwing, Ah well.. one needs to pay the price for quality products right?! I have a GPS-Bay and the damn windscreen mount doesn't stick properly anymore [maybe cause I keep taking it out and fixing it on] - now when I put it up, it drops down. The last thing U want is ur mount dropping when ur i3G/i3GS is fixed to it!

@jfoong, U can get the shop to install the screen protector + skins for U if U like but it's really ur call  No extra surcharge for screen protectors. I had a fellow forummer install my iShield for me and he did a superfabulous job !

Hi people...
I just got back from PC Fair and EpiCentre's got a rather big booth at Ballroom 2. There's a huge display of i3G/i3GS accessories; on top of a 10% discount for them. Also, someone mentioned the Griffin PowerJolt - it was RM79 when I saw it [damn... and I paid RM99 for mine!]

@teikwing, I think so got lah. If U want the PowerJolt, PM me - will get it for U since U been such a great help on the forum  There was also a lot of Capsule/Rebel or whatchamacallit... Even the Mophie Juice Air is available there so for those who wants to feel it or look at it, can head over to Epicentre @ Ballroom 2 (damn I'm begining to sound like their salesperson!) - except don't buy from them cause it's RM339 [go get it from Jacquie] This post has been edited by tinkerbel: Jul 31 2009, 10:22 PM
