Default Ultra-Case anyone?

I searched but don't find that anyone is using or commenting on any of the cases from www.ultra-case.com. The Monos, Satins, and Shinings appear to be just the stock case although in different colors (and in a matte finish in the case of the Satins). They also carry a very wide assortment of designer cases (leather, carbon fiber, etc...).

These cases fit so well that a friend of mine has one on his 3G and I had asked him why he didn't get a case to protect his iPhone. His answer: That is a case on my iPhone. Nice Apple logo on the back. I mean you really can barely tell it's on there (his is gloss black).

Have people had problems with these cases or something because unless someone can give me a reason not to, I'm ordering a couple for the two 3GSs my wife and I have arriving 6-19-09.

It looks sleek and I like some of the designs. My only concern is that it doesn't look like they protect the chrome bezel on the iPhone. Also, how does a screen protector work with this case?

You're correct about the bezel, it isn't covered by this case. If you mean a film screen protector, they work just fine.

At least the screen protector works, but I would be concerned if the iPhone were to fall face down, there would be no protection from falls, and the bezel would get dinged up as well as damage to the screen.

Yep it sure is. But that's not what I'm looking for in an iPhone case. I've tried just about everything for my V1 and would prefer a naked iPhone to the big blocky cases.

Strangely, I ordered one a week ago and never got a confirmation of any kind. Was going to contact them this week.
