For me, I am planning for the following:

1. SwitchEasy RebelCelestial - got it already
2. Apple Universal Dock - so I can drop in and charge while the phone is still inside the case
3. Griffin PowerJolt for iPhone - in car charger, and it comes with additional ipod cable so I can bring that one on me - it's great value coz bundled

Don't plan to use screen protector, coz the iPhone has a glass screen and very hard to scratch those. CNet had a video when the iPhone was first launched and they put keys and coins into a bag with iPhone and rubbed and shook them - without scratch. I had a Motorola SLVR which uses glass screen, dropped the phone so many times and the screen has zero scratch. Can't say the same for the body though tongue.gif

@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.

Just wondering, has anyone's iPhone screen got scratched before (without using a screen protector of course) from normal use? I'm not talking about dropping the phone on concrete floor or deliberately putting it in a pocket with keys...

my flatmate's 3G S has suffered the screen casualty already.

remember, the screen is scratch resistant, but not scratch proof

Can elaborate the actual condition it happened?

For rest, check this PCWorld scratch test => http://www.pcworld.com/article/157529/the_...ress_tests.html

I love it when the reviewer says "if you buy an iPhone, you wouldn't need to cover it up like a baby..." muahhahaha

he just slide his unit into his pocket (and there could be some tiny and abrasive particles inside) and his bodily movements did most of the job

Guys...just wondering...if you're staying in Penang, where do you normally go shop for iPod accessories? I always have the feeling that only KL has most of the stuffs.

I'm getting my phone soon, but made no preparation in the "follow-ups" yet. And just by browsing through some of the recommendations, seems like there's quite a number of casing choices to look at =/ Personally I would like those that could protect, yet maintain the original outlook as much as possible (I like the phone the way it is and doesn't like casing to cover them up).

@johnliew
haha whoa! that's quite a shopping list! wink.gif

in anticipation for the arrival of my 3GS this friday, planning to get this:
1. Bodyguardz - just got it just now from an LYN seller here, jacquei.
2. Pouch - re-using my Oakley glasses micro-fibre pouch
3. Some sort of car holder/mount for the phone.
4. Car charger (maybe Powerjolt?) - still thinking through about getting this or not.

Originally wanted to go for the Griffin Reveal, but with the shortage, was informed that I can only get it late August/early September. So, decided not to get a case, and just stick with Bodyguardz + pouch coz I like the look of the phone naked, and I'm pretty careful with my phones (so far tongue.gif)

You could go with "skins", like Best Skin Ever or Zagg for scratch protection. If you are looking for a case, Griffin Reveal could be a good choice but it's suffering from global shortage as of now.

i got the Bodyguardz (link), not the iShield smile.gif

i read from various reviews and user inputs from some forums that the Bodyguardz doesn't suffer the yellowish effect that the iShield has. oh well, i just bought it liao, so fingers crossed i hope these reviews are true, haha tongue.gif
