Carbon Fiber iPhone cases, coming soon

[yapstuz]

Any updates? I'd love to see something new in carbon fiber, metal, or a combination of the two. Let us know!!!

If they work out well maybe I will find a retailer to sell them for me. I am looking to make something that is perfectly form fitting while not masking the design elements of the iPhone too much [or when it is necessary, use something cool and high tech like CF, instead of clear plastic or rubber].

It would be cool to give color options and annodize the aluminum. My company has a machine shop for prototypes and production parts. We make some cool valve blocks and hand controllers that are annodized aluminum. They look sharp! Great idea!

Wouldn't the carbon fiber affect the signal strength and stuff?

I might be wrong but wouldn't the metal one block the antenna on the Iphone somewhat. It looks cool.
