Slick iPhone mod

How does this compare to Colorware's modded iPhones?

I emailed them straight away after reading the writeup on this process, asking about pricing. Haven't heard back.

I also asked if there would be any effect on the phone's cell or Wifi signal reception. Anyone? They aren't coating the black antenna portion of the phone, but could this process still hinder the performance in any way?

Anyone else think "Oh, they've encased him in carbonite! He should be very well protected, if he survived the freezing process that is." as they were reading this?

I just picked up one of these sweet cases from Incase on Saturday, and so far, it's the best iPhone case I've used to date. Gives the phone the appearance of an all black finish, very slim and sweet. The fit is very tight.

I hated the chrome so much I took a fine grit sanding sponge on Day 1 and "brushed" my iPhone. (Taped up all other surfaces and proceeded really carefully...) Looks great.

An optical microscope & an electron microscope are very different things. While it may be cool to say an electron microscope was used, it is simply not the reality. He correctly states in his posting that he used an optical microscope. This is backed-up by the full-colour images provided. An electron microscope could not, by limitations of its nature, provide such images. Electron microscopes, in their numerous varieties, are wonderful tools for many applications; it just so happens one wasn't used in this case.

The interesting part is that the user didn't just do it for himself, he has obvisouly gone through all the hard work to do it for others: http://www.gigapascal.com/ - they are going to sell the modificaton for iPod touch, iPod 3G and iPhone. Check out the gold edition of iPhone - talk about bling :)

Very badass, but does it hinder cell or wifi reception, or heat dissipation? iPod Jonny picks his materials for a reason. :)
