Default iPhone - iTouch cases?

I have an iTouch and put it in an iFrogz Luxe case. I HATE this case though and want to get a new one. The case is protective, but it is not comfortable to hold and I hate the raised button on the back. What I do most with my iTouch is read, so holding the iTouch needs to be comfortable. The iFrogz Luxe has slightly sharp edges around the earplug jack. The most annoying is the button on the back that doesn't allow the iTouch to be flush to a table. So it rocks on the table when I touch the screen.

So lay it on me, what case do you have that you love?? ideally, I want to get a red case. (I'm in a red phase right now! LOL Everything needs to be red!) But if red isn't available, then maybe a print or pink. Has anyone done a custom case?? That might be fun

My husband has a Griffin NuForm case...it's pretty cool! You could always go on eBay and do a search for a case. That's where I got mine for my LG Xenon phone.

My hubby and I like our Incase slider iPhone cases.

The bottom slides off for easy docking. We use them in with the crystal screen protector films.

I have this Speck case and I really like it - I use the screen protector film as well.http://www.amazon.com/Speck-Products.../dp/B002GKB0AQ

I LOVE to read on my phone, I find this very comfortable. I had a hard case that also had a front cover and I hated it - so I stopped using it and dropped and broke my dang phone! I've not wanted to take this one off at all.

I have a leather sleeve for mine. I'm not rough with my touch (unlike my BlackBerry), so I don't need it super protecting during use.

I like the look of that one! And it seems well rated on Amazon too. I wish it was in red, but I think I'll snag the blue version!

I don't use a case for my Touch (although my children have to use one on theirs... not even an option for them). I just have a skin for mine to dress it up a bit.



and if you'd like to read my review of the Skinzit: review

I big puffy heart my skin for mine. I have a special pocket on my purse with heavy duty velcro where I keep it when we're travelling. Otherwise, I take good care of mine and don't see the need for a case.

THANKS for the link!! I searched for red but didn't see it!

but... I didn't realize it was slick. Darn. I worry that it would slip out of my hand. I hope I can find it to see it in person to find out. That is one of my big reasons for wanting a case. The iTouch exterior is just too slick.

I have one of the incase slider cases too, like this: http://www.goincase.com/products/det...r-case-cl59152. I like it because it's not slippery but it doesn't feel really rubbery either. I read from my iPhone all the time and it works great.

I also have a cute little bag my mom helped me make that has fleece on the inside to protect the screen and a little pocket on the front for holding my earphones. I use it when I put my phone in my purse.

I use a zagg invisible shield. My iTouch looks the same and is the same shape, but it's way less slippery, fingerprints aren't as apparent, and it's protected from anything.

I don't have an iPhone, but the maker of my BlackBerry case does iPhones as well: Case Mate.

I have the Hybrid Tough model:

if i recall correctly, it's not as slick as the itouch w/out a case .. but it's slicker than the ifrogz ... the one i had had rubber around the edge of the front and also a little bit on the back where the logo was - so maybe that's what made it feel less slick to me? i really loved it - haha - after reading this thread i went and bought another one
