anyone have the new incase slider for the 3G?

I'm really interested in getting the matte black one but I can't find it in stock anywhere yet.

I haven't found many reviews yet either.

If anyone has it, how do you like it?

Does the matte black one have a rubbery feel to it? Does it stick to the inside of your pocket?

I never like the slide covers, seems like they are more likely to scratch your iphone.

Yup

I got one last week in matte black. Smooth but slightly greater tactile sensation, slides right into my pocket, fits very well and looks great. Charge without removing the case. With a little Power Support film on it, I think my iPhone's really well protected. I'd give it five stars.

I bought it and returned it

I purchased the white case. It went on well, but when I removed the bottom to put it in the cradle, it put two large scratches on the back. The case was well cleaned and the phone as well prior to putting it on. I was very disappointed because I had the slider for the 1G iPhone and LOVED it.

I have the matte black and I love it... I initially ordered the white but got sent the wrong one (eBay idiots), but I'm actually glad... it looks great, is silky smooth, the inside has little rubber bits so the phone doesn't get scratched... a friend got the white one and I didn't like it in person, it collects fingerprints and got all scratched up while mine didn't, and he's had his for less time than I have... good purchase, just need to get a screen protector now...

this is a form-fitting, aluminum metal case and is designed to protect the iPhone 3G from everyday wear and tear but leather case will be far better.

Got the case about 3 weeks ago and I love it...only problem is removing it from the case is a pain but how often do you need to do that? Great feel, solid protection (my friend has the glossy white one and hers got nicked up and scratched quick...partly to my dropping it ) but even then the matte is better. I really wish I had a dock though so I could utilize the slider feature.

hated it

I purchased it in white at my not so local apple store about a 20 minute drive. I drove back the next day and returned it, couldn't use it with my screen protector cause it made the sides bubbled up. I would rather protect the glass than the plastic back sorry but it just didn't work for me

Ditto. I tried everything but the screen savers always come off and that is NOT cool so I took mine back. I want the Revo but don't want to deal with taking the cover off everytime.

When I had my incase slider for my iphone 3g, it didnt peel up the sides at all (I had a matte and a glossy white one), I used a power support anti glare.
