Are these on your radar by any chance? They're really sleek but I wonder if the iPhone can easily fall out. Also, how practical are they in everyday situations? Thanx, Hellene</p> Julie,

There are a few around, but from what I can see in the photos, they must have been designed by someone who had never used one. They nearly all have a strip of leather over the logo, which would make the initial activiation swipe difficult, and then they frame the screen which completely negates the flush screen with finger sensitive edges. </p> Please do a review on HTC Touch cases.

My service provider is $19.99 for unlimited US/Canada calls. The REAL advantage is the inclusion of all the FEATURES! If you want to know my provider, I will tell you in a PM.

I will be looking forward to your review of anything associated with VOIP.
