iPhone4 case

I need a case for my iPhone 4. I'm looking for a case with a front flap cover on it. Not like a belt-holder, I want a case that is permanently attached. Any suggestions?

I have no personal experience with them, just googling for you.

If you end up getting one and like them let us know.

In the same spirit of this thread, does anyone have one preference over another on the cases available through the Apple Free Case Program?

They let you carry a few business cards etc in the case although the flip case won't do that. They are very high quality. Maybe not quite as nice as Vaja but about 1/3 to 1/5 the price of Vaja so a great deal for the quality.

The InSpeck case (pixel I believe) received the highest the highest rating on engadget. They reviewed each of the cases offered in brief. I ended up choosing the bumper as I already purchased an ifrogz case for full back coverage. Thought the bumper would be a good minimalist case. Yrmv

I saw that one also and should have been more specific. Apple is offering two different InSpeck cases, one is all rubber (pixel) and the other is a rubber / cloth mode (tartan)l. They didn't have much good to say about the cloth one either.

I just ordered the Reveal Etch for the free case.

Any idea which brand of screen protector to get for anti-glare and scratches, that will last a while without any problems? I just need protection for the front screen as the back will be covered by the case. I thought about getting one from Best Buy to increase chances of not getting a crappy screen protector, but its about $20 bucks there.

I like the Body Glove Fringe Case I have. It's got a good hard back and rubber sides.

It was $30 from AT&T. Not sure if it's covered under the Apple case deal.
