Comments on: Core Cases Customer Appreciation Day Tomorrow http://the-gadgeteer.com/2009/03/31/core-cases-customer-appreciation-day-tomorrow/ Gadget reviews and news by Julie Strietelmeier and friends since 1997 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 18:50:51 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v= By: Spencer http://the-gadgeteer.com/2009/03/31/core-cases-customer-appreciation-day-tomorrow/comment-page-1/#comment-34151 Spencer Mon, 27 Apr 2009 14:02:51 +0000 http://the-gadgeteer.com/?p=13670#comment-34151 At least for their iPhone product, avoid this one like the plague! I got one and on the plus side, it does a great job protecting the iphone, is sleek and thin and lightweight. BUT- my phone doesn't work when it is in the case! It constantly dropped calls, wouldn't get email or texts reliably. I emailed the company, and they said they knew of the issue, but hoped it would be fixed with the release of firmware 3.0. Then the ultimate, and I quote, "Please consider us again in the future when we will have the design kinks worked out to provide an exceptional product"!!!! In other words, we know this is bad, but hope you will buy from us again later! At least for their iPhone product, avoid this one like the plague!

I put one on my Touch and later it slid off a shelf and fell face down from a height of 5 feet to a hardwood floor. Neither the case nor my Touch was damaged. I like it a lot, but it's not quite perfect because the fit is slightly loose, which makes the on/off switch hard to use, being recessed too far down inside the case. But hey, it probably saved my iPod from certain death, so no biggie. I got 3 at $5 each.

Make me wonder how many of the cases they actually had at $5? Unfortunately, perhaps due to the lateness of the day, everything I tried to order was Out of Stock.
