Abee Aluminum Jacket for iphone 4 finally available on US market

[cynosureabu]

Some of you may have heard of Abee Aluminum Jacket type from Japan.
Its the most cool iphone 4 in the world i think. Finally now its available on US market, even cheaper than their price in Japan!! It seems that Pocomaru is the only supplier so far...

Not really sure why you'd want this. It doesn't even look like a phone and makes it look extremely bulky.

Some of those pictures are showing the Type 1 model and the others are showing the Type 2 model. The type 2 doesnt look as entirely bulky as the Type 1 does so id rather have the Type 2 if I were even to buy it.

Seems heavy too. It'd be nice if it came with credit card holder.

I cant imagine the aluminum being too heavy.

My friend had an aluminum case for the 3Gs. It was heavy as heck which was the purpose of it since it was for heavy duty protection

if its supposed to be a protective case, it looks like the aluminum rest against the glass which means that if you drop it the glass will still take the brunt of the shock.

The type 02 is only around 45g...

I cant imagine the aluminum being too heavy.

The ugliest case(If you can call it that)EVER.....Period!

If its the "ugliest" in your eyes, then its kinda successful already.
