nope. Need something pointy, but a draw tool would probably work.
The Belkin is one of the cases in my case graveyard.

Pete,
It is easy to use.
I am use to the harder Incipio on my 3G so this one is a breeze.

I think I will make love to my phone tonight.
Man I love this thing.
Did some videos today and edited them right on the phone.
The zoom on the camera is amazing.
Got my apps organized by folders.
Just not sure if I should use a condom.
:-)

This pairing of statements is quite disturbing to me, Mr. Cigar Brother.

Looks like something pointy will be entering the above mentioned Belkin case after all.
:-)
Hope your hard drive doesn't get all floppy on ya brother.

Well, didn't work out for me as my phone fell asleep, just like the wife.
:-)
On another note, cracked up this morning listening to Z-100 from NY that we also get in South Florida.
They declared today the official "punch and iPhone 4 owner" day.

After almost a day of playing with the phone nearly constantly, i think I can safely say that this is the most insanely amazing electronic device I've ever used.
:-) Aside from the alleged design flaw (which I cannot replicate with any degree of consistency or predictability to conclude it's an *actual* flaw), the iPhone 4 both beautiful and functionally lightyears beyond anything I've ever used ... especially the Blackberry from which I'm switching over.

I'm still slathering over OS 4.0. I can't imagine how I'd be acting if I had moved to iphone 4.
Congratulations to all you guys, especially Dokk. You've been assimilated!!!

Scott,
The OS 4 is a mess with the 3 and 3G. The phones have actually slowed down a lot.
I think Apple messed up in putting that system on an older phone that was likely really intended for the 4. Or, on the other hand, maybe it was intentional to sell more 4's.
With the iPhone 4, you fly through it, literally. It is so, so fast as compared to the 3 series.
The screen is amazing.
The feel is awesome.
Candidly, regardless of whether one is an Apple fan or not, you cannot help but be awed by this phone if you use it. As Dokk said, truly an incredible device and a testament to Apple's innovativeness when it comes to this type of technology. Love them or hate them, they totally rock. I am just glad as heck I am on the "user" side.
:-)
BTW,
Fact Time is a riot.
Awesome to be able to toggle back and forth between front camera and back camera, even while on a conversation.
Truly innovative.

Wife ordered one to replace hers, and I don't know when it's supposed to arrive. Then she said she tried to order one for me, but couldn't, as I want to keep my phone number, so we'll have to go into a store and do that. Evidently, they are going to be out at the local stores until July 2nd. So we'll see how things go next Friday or Saturday or so.
Can't wait to get it.
:-)

I remember back when literally wasn't used as gross exaggeration and actually just meant..in a literal manner...or just meant "really" or "actually". But i guess the only constant is change

Myles,
Since you are going to threadjack to teach me English, let me correct you.
When I said you fly through it, literally, there is no error in my ways or usage.
I emphasized "you fly through it", which is the meaning, intent or use of literally.
Here you go:
usage Since some people take sense 2 to be the opposite of sense 1, it has been frequently criticized as a misuse. Instead, the use is pure hyperbole intended to gain emphasis, but it often appears in contexts where no additional emphasis is necessary.
In my case, I felt compelled to emphasize "you fly through it" and hence literally applies.
However, an English teacher I am not and heck if it matters in a discussion about a phone.

Good thing I got one last night.
Phone almost took its first dive this a.m. Caught it in time. Had it fallen, I am sure that cover would have done the trick.
Stay away from the bumper. It only covers the edges and leaves the back exposed.
The bumper is an Apple exclusive but Best Buy does have a copy cat version.

I read about OS 4 sucking on the 3G. I didn't think it was even available for the 3.
Me and Weeze both have the 3Gs. I haven't suffered any slowdown whatsoever. If anything, it's a lot faster. I use the home double click psuedo multitasking feature constantly. When I learned you can swipe the multitask bar and see all the stuff you have used all day, it made things even faster.
I don't have to dig through screens anymore!!!
:-)
Today I started putting my crap in folders.
Oh yeah, on the faster...
The camera is so much faster, it literally screams now. I'm happy of it because I send a lot of text pics to Lisa. Lots of little videos, too. The whole camera/video thing has improved dramatically.
I haven't even scratched the surface of allthe new stuff. When I get time, I'll watch some "new features" videos and get educated.
On the screen, I have an ipad. I believe it uses the same glass/resolution.
Even if it doesn't, it's insanely gorgeous HD. I'm looking forward to the OS 4 for the ipad, but it won't be nearly the upgrade it was for my 3Gs, unless they come up with more features.
If there's one thing I'll use, it'll be the ability to use Pandora while I'm reading or surfing.
:-)

Jr. has the 3GS and he is the one that told me he was crawling.
Glad to hear yours runs good. He may have had a bad day.
The camera on the 4 is quite fast. Truly a breath of fresh air over the prior version I had. Not sure how the digital zoom looks on the 3G but very sharp on the 4. The HD video and the in camera editing is quite neat also.
