Proporta’s Alu-Crystal iPhone Case is Sexy No More

Proporta iPhone case Update: I expressed my love for this case when it was in the concept stages (see photo below). Now that it’s been released, it looks nothing like the original design, and it’s actually quite hideous. I hope Proporta runs with the original design someday instead of this ugly crap (shown above).
Proporta iPhone Case
I’m really digging this Proporta iPhone case, which conforms to the iPhone’s rounded edges and encloses all but the touchscreen (so you can still use it).
And I’m not sure but that gray ridge on the left side of the Proporta case (see photo) looks like a button for easily snapping off the enclosure. That would be cool.

Features, from the Proporta site:
  • Shatterproof
  • Shock absorbent
  • Contrasting Aluminium backing with tough, scratch-resistant, anodized finish
  • Cutouts give access to ports and controls
  • Secure closure prevents accidental opening
  • Double hinge allows case to be folded through 360 degrees
  • Optional, removable belt clip attachment
Unlike some so-called “iPhone cases” already out on the market, which are nothing more than rebranded mobile phone cases that just happen to fit the iPhone, this Proporta iPhone case is still in the concept stages until the iPhone comes out in June.
Proporta does sell a similar case for the 2GB iPod Nano, though. So now it’s simply a matter of adapting it to the iPhone.

iPhone for Dummies Book Out Already?

iPhone for Dummies
I was surprised to see this iPhone for Dummies book on Amazon already, 2 months before the iPhone even comes out.
The Amazon book summary says:
What the book covers: Getting started with your iPhone, setting up iTunes and your iPhone, getting organized with your iPhone, browsing the Internet with your iPhone, sending and receiving E-mail with your iPhone, buying music and videos from the iTunes store, taking great pictures with your iPhone, organizing and managing your photos, syncing up with your desktop, protecting your information, troubleshooting, and more.
The book’s authors are going to have to quickly learn the iPhone features in June, write about them, and have the book ready for publication by September (the publication date is listed on Amazon as September 24).
Just goes to show how much buzz the iPhone has created, that everyone’s jumping on the iPhone train trying to profit off it, including the popular …for Dummies book series. Click the book image above for a larger view of the cover.
