Infectious offers discount for TUAW readers
I am a huge fan of Gelaskins, and my iPhone has boasted one since I discovered a display at a small Toronto store back in May. Adhesive art for your iPhone, iPod, and Mac is a fantastic concept and a great way to express yourself beyond the typical hardware case.
Infectious is another site that offers art for laptops, cars, and more. They have recently launched a line for the iPhone. The site currently has 38 different pieces of art for the iPhone, and is currently on sale for $9.99. The Infectious stickers will fit both generations of iPhones.
You will get a large piece of art for the back of the phone, and a smaller one for the front that goes over the Home button. The artwork for the front of the iPhone is a fantastic feature that Gelaskins doesn't have, and one that I find very attractive. It makes it easy to spot your phone without having to flip it over to check the back or activate the screen to check the wallpaper.
Art for laptops is starts at $29.99 and will fit the Powerbook G4, iBook, MacBook, MacBook Pro and MacBook Air. The artwork is made on 3M vinyl material and can be easily removed to put on another piece.
Infectious is currently offering a deal for TUAW readers. Use discount code TuawRocks for 10% off from now until December 31.

This is Tim from Infectious. We just added cheaper shipping options with USPS. $2.99 for an iPhone in the US and $4.99 for laptops.
Canada USPS is $12 for USPS.
What about USPS shipping to Canada? $13.34 is pretty steep.

December 12 2008 at 10:13 AM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down Replythe discount code is applied after you enter your credit card but before final purchase.
Also, check out Tego - www.mytego.com
They allow you to upload your own images. It's a fair bit more expensive, but if you just have to have that obscure image or a pic of your family it's the way to go.
They also gouge on shipping - $6.95 to send an envelope?

Very cool. especially since I have had various cases since buying the 1G when it came out and lately decided to go 'naked' and now this is a good in between with some art faktor.

Where in toronto did you pick up the Gelaskin? I live in Toronto and would love to be able to drop in a store to pick one up.
As for Infectious...i think Gelaskin has done a better job since the skin covers the back and the SIDE of the phone. I prefer the wallpaper over the front skin. Will the apple logo and what's printed on the back on my iphone3g be peeled off when I take gelaskin off??
btw, I never knew there was an anime convention in toronto!! Any info you can share with? :)
Gelaskins are based out of Toronto, but your best bet is to get the stuff right from their website. Tech blogger Veronica Belmont raves about their stuff, and even has one of my friends art works as her iPhone 3G skin!

However although we found them there, I believe none of the Gelaskins would fit her phone so she bought one online instead.
They look like ass! If you're going to put anything on your iPhone, get a good case that will protect it instead of making it look like something that trailer park trash would carry.
