Default Looking for a new case for my 3G S

I want it to look modern, sleek, and possibly have a holster. That would be a plus. What are the top reviewed cases? Any review sites? Thanks!

Form factor is the same of the 3G. I recently got a Speck CandyShell and I absolutely LOVE it. The inside is rubber so it won't scratch the back of your iPhone, and the outside shell is hard. Pretty awesome protection and I think it looks sexy. See for yourself:http://www.speckproducts.com/product.../iphone-3g/162

I'm considering buying a SwitchEasy capsule neo, or maybe the capsule rebel and their holster. Looks pretty good. I haven't made up my mind, I'm also considering a iSkin soloFX with the revoclip. I already have a seidio innocase II for my 3G, which I really like just looking for a change, so I'm not in a rush.

I would never go back to iSkin. I had the revo for my iPhone v1 and the rubber made it so hard to take out of pockets. And actually, my first case was a SwitchEasy and I found those two last night. Now the problem is deciding between the two.

And the Speck.....it looks amazing, but a certain Speck product messed up my MBP screen and Apple won't do anything about it.

I think I'm gonna go with the neo. I'm gonna get the vision clip to go with it. I think I'm gonna go with white. I already have a black case that I like and can use with it and I have the black phone...so this will let me switch back and forth.

And not only that, the white discolors within weeks.

Sorry for the double post, but I went for SE's new Rebel Serpent in white. It is beautiful and I bought it for $18.xx shipped on eBay using PayPal's coupon that ends tomorrow! If you are still getting the Neo, the seller I bought my Rebel from sells the Neo for $20($18 with the coupon). Good luck!
