Yeah, saw these at the Sydney Apple Store. They have them there for $54.95. A bit steep for what you get.

that looks like a nice case, but the price sucks.

I saw a crystal case at vodafone for 14.95, not sure how good it is but it didn't seem to shabby.

hard cases in my opinion are all bad, not because they make the device more bulky but because of two reasons:
a) dust and grit gets trapped behind the case and when u handle the phone the case will slightly move.. only very slightly but overtime you get a lot of scratches on the back because its constantly rubbing... only my experience with a macbook and iphone 1G case..

I have a bodyguardz protector on the front and carry my phone around in a Oakley sunglasses pouch.. perfect size...

b) i cant remember :P

i both like these two cases

I'm personally waiting for the Griffin Elan Form to make its way to Aus. Looks pretty nice and heard good things. Not sure if you can use it without the front screen shield, though. Anyone know?

I agree. I would prefer a pouch style. bought a cheapie Belkin in the interim.

Looking to get Sena ultraslim, BOA, AEVOE, or Fabrix case/pouches down the track

Well I'm using the Nu Form (pretty much the same as the Elan Form) and if you don't have the screen protector in there is a bit of flex around the edges of the case which may (not to sure) scratch up the chrome. But I will say the screen protector is rubbish, it only half sticks to the screen, but if you swap the sides over so the static side is face up and the normal side is face down it is pretty good. As a whole I find mine great!!!!

I bought this Switcheasy's Capsule Rebel
It's pretty cool (a mixture of hard silicon and plastic)
Keeps the handset pretty thin too, all ports and buttons are accessible

Thanks for that info. I was eyeing the Nu Form as well. But I really don't want to use the hard screen protector on either the Nu Form or the Elan Form because I already have a Power Support Anti-Glare Film on there which does the job (and does it well). I might wait 'til these cases come to Aus so I can have a good look at them first.

Welcome to SwitchEasy

Did you order the Capsule Rebel from the website, or did you find somewhere in Australia that stocks them?

Edit: just read on the site "Currently available for U.S and Canadian Residents Only" so I guess that answers the first question. So second question, where did you get yours from?

Well I reckon if you've got a screen protector on the device there shouldn't be to much flex, but I'm going to get a screen protector for mine (the hard one keeps getting stuff underneath it) and see how it goes, I'll let you know if it works. But i just got the Nu Form at my local mac shop and the fellow said they would be getting in heaps of different cases from the U.S.A in the next week or two so shouldn't be to much longer before they hit most stores.

I bought it from a store in Moonee Ponds, Melbourne,
They have a list of dealers
Powermove - iPod and Mac Accessories

You can also purchase online from here

The case is awesome, I've gotten many compliments on how good it looks.
