How soft is the black satin on the inside? I love the look of the Above 40N but I'd rather the sherpa wool on the inside as it looks alot softer. Might have to go the black corduroy to offset my white iPhone  |

Lol I know satin is soft but it looks like he stitching is exposed so I was concerned about that. Haven't seen one in real life though. |

You know, I really like that one.
Easy to remove and show the iPhone in its naked glory.
Yet soft enough to protect from bumps, and cheap enough to replace occasionally. |

inside is silk as mentioned above, and its very soft. i couldn't feel any stitching when i have a feel around inside, the padding on the sides is quite nice.

got my dock, which looks really good with my white iPhone. Also got a pair of Sennheiser mm 50 ip's for $100 they're very good. Being an audiophile I wanted better but couldn't afford the hf2s, which are the only other decent canalphones with an inline mic (more valuable than you would think).
Overall both worth getting, need another USB cable tho as the dock didn't come with one.

ghettro: Very nice Cheers for the pics. I've ordered the exact same case from ebay for $3.91 (I think mention of it is in this thread a few pages back) except it's the black one.
The clear one is nice 'cause you can see the Apple logo :P Though, thinking about it, I'd rather hide it so I don't get randoms coming up to me and going "HEY is that an iPhone?! Can I play with it?". urgh.
Now all I need is a screen protector as well. Anyone had any experience with the static cling ones rather than the ones you apply solution to? Something like the Power Support Crystal Film springs to mind. Any good? |

I prefer static-cling ones. You can take them off and re-apply them if you mess up the first time. It's also very easy to "clean" the underside with tape.
As for recommended solutions, I'll do the exact opposite and advise that you stay away from Gecko's. The fit is bad. 
I'm now going to look at Power Support's. I've heard good things about their screen protectors. Anyone know of any good online resellers that stock them? The online Apple Store doesn't seem to have them, and I don't really want to order direct from Power Support USA due to the high shipping costs. |

Can anyone recommend the best car charger for the new iphone? I have read a few things stating the old ones shouldn't be used for the new iphone and that ones being sold at some mac retails say not compatible with the iphone 3g.

Thanks for the advice I'll check out Power Support then, if I can find any. Let me know if you do.
There's also the Capdase ones which are apparently a copy of the Power Support ones. But haven't seen those anywhere either, except 1 left on ebay. I might look around a bit first.
Edit: There's some Power Support Crystal and Anti-Glare Film on ebay now, just checked. It'll be about $30 with shipping though. That's kinda steep. |

Not sure why the Power Supports aren't on Apple yet, but I will make sure we have them on our site this afternoon. |
