3 hours after recording this video, the Speck case I talk about in this video broke apart while getting into my car. It snaps back together, but I now have to add “unreliable” to the list of things wrong with it.

Hi Gary;
Have you tried the Otterbox iPhone Case?
True, it has a clip but the iPhone is cover front back and sides. With openings for
camera, speaker, mic and ear speaker (most cover by filter screen).
Not a case you’ll remove your iPhone nightly but as a cop, my phone really feels safe to me.

Gary,
The case your after does exist.
Case-Mate - Signature Leather iPhone Case

There is another (slightly better) than the case above, but I can remember the brand at the moment.
I personally use this one

it’s cheap and I would rather carry it in my pocket then on my belt. I have lost cell phones that way and I don’t want to lose the iPhone this way.

Gary, I use a combination of the griffin snap on leather cover and a krusell case that was made for the treo. It is a little big though but it has a magnetic snap and a memory card holder as well. It has worked great for me. Good Luck!
