I hope they're all good wholesome, virginal ideas. Fresh and clean as the driven snow. Oh, what am I saying, of course your ideas, that you are so full of are brimming with honesty, virtue, strength, and awesomeness. :D You're just an all-around GR8 guy who's full of ideas! Awesome!

No sarcasm there? :p

Probably a lifeproof, but maybe naked for a while. I'm using my 4 with the case off right now and it's really awesome

Ah, nudity, seems to be a popular theme here today. I commutte, I would never go nude. I always have a case on my iPhone 4 and I will with my iPhone 4S.

It does feel awesome to have no case on it and I have been doing it a lot lately, at home, but, I've got to protect it from the rigors of travel and just plain office living. I don't want it hurt or voilated.

I ordered the black switcheasy trim (http://www.switcheasy.com/products/TRIM/TRIM.php) - got top reviews on ilounge.com, is still slim, but covers the back as well. I got the white iPhone to pop in the black case which should look nice. The case is only $23 with shipping, comes with 2 screen protectors, a piece to put in the charging port, and a piece to put in the headphone jack to protect when not using, a little stand to prop it up, etc. so its well worth the cost. And the back piece is a semi translucent so you still see the Apple which is nice. It comes in a bunch of colors: blue, black, white, pink, green
The black Switcheasy Trim is in my weekly case rotation with my SGP Neo Hybrid. Great case.

Is there a place to get the oem Apple bumpers a little cheaper? $29 is a little steep for that.

I will switch from naked to case
I have a few cases and who knows may get a few more
I use the Lifeproof at the moment. the OtterBox I will give my friend I don't like much. Who knows what I will find while out and about and or surfing the net.
Yeesh, if you give otterboxes to your friends that you don't like much, what do you give your friends that you do like?

Black bumper on white phone, maybe white on white. I'll probably just get both. Contemplating one of the invisible skins like Zagg. on the 3GS i had nothing but the zagg front and back and loved it. Where do you guys get your bumpers? Just the Apple store ones?

Edit: Nope sticking to black on white

Yes, slightly, so it may not work with cases that are tight fitting or have a lip around the front like the Otterbox. I started out on the iPhone 4 with an invisibleShield full body coverage and added a bumper when we got the freebie, and it fit with a little wiggling, but it tore up the edges a bit.

May re-think things and check out LifeProof as well. I noticed in a best buy ad 2 weeks ago they are selling them now. At least the stores close to me in Florida are. But $79 and no type of belt clip or anything? Ouch

I have a 3G now and use a leather "flip" case I got at AT&T when I bought the phone. I like having something protecting the screen as I've broken the screens on other phones in the past.

Can anyone recommend a case with a screen cover for my new 4s? Nothing crazy expensive.

I have clear back on my 3GS now so I might go with it on my 4s. Now does the 4 have black on the back side to like 3GS ? My iPad 2 is white on the face gray color on the back.
