Silicone cases have existed for iDevices for years, and the iPhone 4 is no exception. One of the earliest cases available, the $20 Incipio dermaSHOT, takes a very familiar idea and takes it a step further in a few areas, although not nearly as unique as SwitchEasy’s Colors line of cases…
It seems iPhone users fit into about three camps—those who want to use their phone naked, those who want a basic case, and those who want it to survive any sort of catastrophic adventures they can throw at it. With the iPhone 4, there has been a new category of cases that aim to offer something in between nothing and the traditional case that we’ve seen used on most iPhones. Apple’s Bumper is a great example of such product, but for those who want a little more protection, Incipio offers the Feather…
A lot of people like Apple’s Bumper for the iPhone 4 for the simple reason that it doesn’t detract from the minimalist design of the iPhone and still protects the corners and edges against drops and bumps. For those who want to add a bit more protection (notably the back of the iPhone), SwitchEasy offers the TRIM, a $20 minimalist case that’s worth checking out…

I’ll admit, I was a little put off at first by the SwitchEasy RibCage iPad case just because of the look.

Got an original iPad and have Smart Cover-envy? You’re not alone. Fortunately, the $50 Incase Convertible Magazine Jacket, which actually was released long before the iPad 2 and Smart Covers, gives the original iPad a folding cover, but also protects the back of the iPad. Unlike Apple’s iPad 2-oriented options, the Magazine Jacket comes in any color and material you like, as long as it’s a black synthetic material…
