There is a plastic cover over the screen. I'm about to order it.

Before you do here's my advice: I had a hard case on my v1 phone. The case worked great. The problem is/was that dirt and dust get between the case and the phone and wind up scratching the phone. I would not go for the hard case if I were you...

How often would you open up your case and clean it?

I never opened it to clean it. To me that kind of defeats the purpose of a case. I think the rubber cases create a tighter seal and therefore keep the dirt from coming in. How often do you plan on opening your case and cleaning it?

Once a week.

I'm not leaving it up to chance. Apparently NOT cleaning it defeats the purpose. Other people have said ANY type of case will need cleaning once in a while.

I guess so. I'm going to try a soft case this time. I guess I'm going to open it up and clean it regularly as wel...

Just watched the video review. Several things I noticed.

Why do they insist on putting a black border on the front cover when the front of the iPhone is already black? I'm a little wary of covering ANYTHING in the front because I have had bad experiences with covers covering the sensor. Would have been better with just a totally clear front cover.

I'm not crazy about the sliding of the back cover. If you don't have your iPhone securely in the front cover, I can see scratches happening with the sliding motion. The Agent 18 3G case I have snaps straight on.

I know the Naked Case from Case-Mate has a fully clear front. I'm not sure how the case comes together though. Both are about $30. I'll wait to see a review of the Naked Case.

I still want a clear hard case with a stand.

Let me clear the situation. I ordered this case after checking different forums and got yesterday. This is a hard case with a soft touch and also comes with scratch free screen protector. Secondly this case do not cover iphone senser and have exact cutouts for volume control, headphone, wake, charging...Pics for all....
