  Good price - only OK product, 2008-12-29
Got this cover about a week ago. I like the look and feel and the non-bulkiness of the cover. However I have a couple of issues.
1. The case front and back do not fit together snugly. There is a very noticeable 1 mm gap on the right hand side.
2. The coating on the left hand side around the seam appears to be peeling off, revealing the shiny material underneath. It looks almost like liquid stains on the seam.
3. The seam is not smooth between front and rear cover. A clear raised lip can be felt most of the way around the seam.
I am seriously considering returning this product.

  Great, until it broke, 2008-12-24
Loved this case but it broke very quickly...and not even from a drop or anything like that. One of the little side latches just snapped one morning and now it doesn't stay on securely. If it were more sturdy I'd buy another right away.

  U get what u pay for, 2008-12-22
It was cheap and u got a cheap product. It peeled badly and I have a white iPhone so it stained it and everything it sucked bad

  lasted less than 2 weeks, 2008-12-20
I purchased 2 of these cases for 2 iphones a couple of weeks ago. One of the cases broke after about 5 days (a plastic side latch broke off). a couple of days later another latch on the same case broke off. I had to throw the case away. Several days later my wife's case broke (the same problem: 2 side latches broke off couple of days apart). So only 2 weeks later one of the 2 cases is in the trash and the second one is like to follow it soon. Hence, I give this case 1 star.

By the way, I purchased these cases along with other accessories from Bargaincell. Due to problems with the order and not being able to get timely support, I will be sure not to order from Bargaincell again.

  Its good but rubber skin os coming off, 2008-12-16
The product is good, but looks are not so good as the skin is peeling off the case.

    I hope I didn't mislead you with that title. This is not the mythical "G2," as in T-Mobile's G1 successor. This is, however, the "G2" as in the second Google Android phone to hit the market. Kogan's Agora and Agora Pro run Android and are set to ship at the end of this month. Here's some rather poor footage of what looks to be a rather awesome phone in action. I found this clip, I didn't shoot it - the video comes from YouTube user...

    iPhone as heart/cardio monitor

    I should exercise. No, really — I need to back off from the keyboard, take the Twinkie out of my mouth and go for a run or something. I should, but I don’t. Working out has never given me big results, so I simply stopped. That I’m not 200 lbs by now is a factor of genetics (thanks, Mom and Dad!) and decent nutrition (minus the occasional junk food jones). Still, walking to the grocery store and getting lapped by the senior citizens in my hood is...

    iPhone slideshows, Keynote app

    Feeling let down about the keynote address at MacWorld? Yeah, me too. Phil Schiller did a decent job, but he’s not the showman that Steve Jobs is. And the biggest phone-related news had to do with DRM-free tunes and 3G music downloads. (While a step in the right direction, it’s certainly not game-changing — after all, Amazon has had DRM-less tunes for ages). Through all this, however, it may be easy to overlook that there were a couple of kinda...
