Hi all! Recently my iPhone headset broke, and I am tired of my same old Speck PixelSkin case!

What do you use? What do you do/don't recommend?

I use this:

Wow! Look, spam sleeves for kids! One size fits all.

and

Whoa, dude. You can receive spam through your ears too? No way. Headphone spam dispensers.

The headset I bought at the Apple Store, don't know the brand at this moment. The case is an Otterbox, IMO excellent. Previously I wore out cases about once a month but the Otter is durable as can be (on an iPhone 3). I do not use the display cover sheet.

I will buy this case for my 4s:

Apple bumper.

I don't like the sharp edges, so it's perfect for me. Only problems are it sucks up lint in the mute/dock cutouts, and the thin rubber on the dock cutout flaked after a year.

A different issue is it won't fit in a standard dock. That can be a problem depending.

Sennhesier i300 headphones and a cheapo rubbery case that says xqisit on the back.
The new Mac Pro has up to 30 MB of cache inside the processor itself. That's more than the HD in my first Mac. Somehow I'm still running out of space.

Did have a Griffin Reveal with the carbon fibre texture back, but the rubber edge started to go so I've just replaced it with a Cygnett bumper type case (pack of 2, 1 black, 1 grey) that had front and back screen protectors. I already had a matt anti glare front screen protector on the screen so I've just put the back one on.

It'll be much easier if you just comply.

One more thing.

I was smiling at a pretty girl and I slammed full-on into the edge of a table at iPhone in the pocket height. It was with enough force to send a glass onto the floor, and a chorus of  from the witnesses.

No way the phone would have survived without the bumper.

I read a news blurb a few years ago. Bikini-clad girl with hot dog stand set up in front of a public building. It was causing distraction, especially among drivers going past. One driver rear-ended a police car (which might have been going slow for the same reason). The driver got a ticket, and hot-dog girl was asked by the cops to put more on her buns.

There's nothing wrong with smiling at pretty girls. Obviously, we do need good iPhone cases.
