The iPhone is an iconic gadget at the pinnacle of fashion, so why not protect it with a designer case?  I have been using the Proporta Ted Baker case for some time now and find it a great iPhone accessory, especially at the local bar where we all have out phones on show (for potential thieves).

The Ted Baker is a flip style case with full phone coverage leaving just a cutout for the display and the earpiece.  The cover is secured by 2 stud poppers, which after many months of use still work perfectly.

The bottom of the case has a slot for the 31 pin iPhone USB connector.  The case will not allow the phone to be placed in any of the docks, it needs to be removed, or you need to use the USB connector.

On the back of the case there is a hole for the camera to take a picture, you may need to jiggle the iPhone a bit to get an unobstructed view when framing your picture.

Becoming something of a national institution in the UK, The Italian Job is a British caper film that was released in 1969 and has had quite the cult following worldwide ever since.
