This highly ornate case isn’t going to be everyone’s taste, but I think it’s beautiful.  The Nouveau Art iPhone 4/4S case from Ion is a polycarbonate snap-on back cover.  It’s available in iridium-coated silver or goldtone, so it doesn’t interfere with the signal strength.  The camera and all ports and controls are open and accessible.  [...]
