"Like it or not, the iPhone dominates the Smartphone market. It looks really sleek and delicate, and is just begging to be ruined by just about anything. I mean, the iPhone gets unsightly scratches and fingerprints just by just thinking about it. All of its processing might and it still can't win a battle against an enraged Dust Bunny.

The iPhone is begging for protection. The AT&T store rep even told me how one customer dropped their shiny new iPhone on the pavement right after walking out of the door. If you don't have some sort of impact or scratch protection in place, then you're begging to buy another one before your two-year contract is up. That either means purchasing one at full price, or resetting your contract to get a "cheap" phone."
