The release date is just a couple weeks away for the OtterBox iPhone 3G case.    Calls from our customers and preorders are giving us a good indication that our customers Love OtterBox cases.   From what our sources are telling us quantities will be limited and the case if all goes well should be in stock end of August / 1st week in September.

Here is what the designer of the iPhone 3G case has to say.

Words from Alan.

Alan designed both the OtterBox for iPhone 3G Defender AND Impact Series cases:

"Listening to our customers regarding the first generation OtterBox for iPhone case, we improved several aspects of the design including access to the silence switch, improvements to the screen and the overall fit and feel of the outer silicone. We are confident OtterBox users will be happy with the balance of protection and usability achieved with the new OtterBox Defender™ series case for the Apple iPhone 3G.

Customer feedback also led us to understanding that they don’t always need such extreme protection; as a result, we developed the Impact™ Series, a protective, skin-like silicone. The new case provides innovative silicone corners to protect against accidental drops and bumps. The OtterBox Impact™ series for the Apple iPhone 3G is the first case in this product line and we are sure our customers will appreciate the level of drop protection this case provides while still being tough enough to be considered a true OtterBox."

So it looks like there is more to come from OtterBox and  the Impact Series should be the best protective case on the market.
