Best way to protect my phone??

Best is subjective. Sorry, you will just get varied responses. My response is, why use anthing. My iPhone bought on June 29, 2007 looks great. No scratches on glass and bezel looks better than most others I see where the person just doesn't treat the phone right or they have a case and some cases actually TRAP dirt in them to scratch more.

This is true. Some cases trap dirt, dust, sand, etc. that will be held in place by the tight fitting silicone case and end up scratching the phone more than if you had no case.

If you invest in a case, be sure to take the phone out and clean both it and the case regularly if you really want to preserve looks of the phone.

Speck makes cases that are quick and easy to remove and install. But they also trap dirt as well.

There are probably 100 threads on this same topic; if you search them you will find everything you need to know, plus some! 🙂

For me, the Vaja case is it-- www.vajacases.com -- once it finally arrives!

If you are looking for a skin-type covering, I've been happy with Gelaskins: http://www.gelaskins.com/. The skin can be removed and repositioned, so it's easy to put on. I removed mine after two weeks for a trip to the Genius Bar, then put it back on when I returned home. Two weeks later, it's still as tight as the first day. It doesn't cover the whole phone - top, bottom and bezel are all exposed. But it looks cool and will give some protection. I have mine paired with the antiglare screen.

I am using a case called Incipio. You can purchase it at an atnt store. I love it. I am using it along with a antiglare screen that they sell at the apple store. It is the best case i have seen so far. defintaly check it out.
It's called Silicrylic Gel/shell combo. It comes with one black and white case along with a stand and a plastic shield that goes on the back. Great case imo.

I found a large selection of accessories at this website. 🙂
Worked fine for me.
