I couldn't wait to accessorize my iPhone after I got it, but I found that the first case I ordered was a total bust, so I continued my search. I purchased the Case Mate Signature Series leather case for my iPhone, in black, from everythingiphone.com online.

About the Case Mate Signature Series Case
This case is a hard shell wrapped in "premium Napa leather". It retails for $34.95 online and the pictures made it look as if it fit the iPhone like a second skin. The case came with a microfiber cloth and a thin screen protector for the front of the iPhone.

The iPhone slips easily into and out of the Case Mate case. I was pleased when I received the case and began using it to see that it really does fit the iPhone wonderfully. The only disappointment with the case is that the screen protector that comes with it isn't a full-size screen protector. Unlike the full-sized screen protector that came with my Marware case, this one is only a rectangle that fits over the screen, but still leaves some unprotected areas.

I love this case because it protects my iPhone, but all the buttons are still easily accessible. Each button is easy to reach and the case makes the iPhone look great. The belt clip screws on and is easily removed, which is another bonus since I like to use the belt clip at work, but take it off when I'm at home. The case must be removed to dock the iPhone, but if you can also plug a charger straight into the bottom without using the dock. The high quality case is easy to take on or off and comes in red, black or pink.

Cat's Bottom Line
The Case Mate Signature Series leather case was exactly what I wanted for my iPhone and I highly recommend it!
