    You bought both? Good for you. I wish the blue didnt have the black back. I waited so long for a white iPhone I like the white case.

    The blue doesn't have a black back, unless you meant the 'band' around the case.
    3 iPhones in the house, so needed some new colors :D

    Check out Stickerboy.net that have some great looking skins for the lifeproof, and other cases / devices.
    Carbon fiber skins for $10.

    The thing I don't like about the white is the gray. Would look much better with the black around the case. White&grey?? Just doesn't look right to me.

    I actually like the gray. It's a softer look than black. The blue is cool but still a little too dark for me. I did notice that amazon is selling the older colors on the cheap now. They were like $54.

    You buy them from amazon or eBay etc... You will get NO warranty from Lifeproof. You may save a few $ there, but with no warranty? Not worth the risk.

    Do they require a receipt or registering or something? I didn't keep mine long enough to care, but a friend wants one and asked.

    Good to know, thanks. I doubt I could keep up with a receipt for a year.

    eBay I would understand cause who knows sometimes what truck it fell off from but I would be miffed If I bought it from amazon and it wasn't covered. Not a outside seller that uses amazon but actual amazon.

    I use LifeProof and love it. Very important for my line of work (Stevedore). Got caught in a nasty T-Storm and the only thing I wasn't worried about was my iPhone!

    That wait was ridiculous. Maybe they can get the specs before we all do and start production before it is released.

    Yeah, I was burned by this with SwitchEasy, fortunately I was able to get most of my money back from Amazon. I've noticed that the majority of case makers now ONLY warranty cases purchased directly from them, too many knock offs.

    While I completely understand the reasoning for this, it does make it difficult for anyone trying to find deals, and shipping costs usually seem to be higher direct.
