iSkin Solo FX
I recently purchased the new iSkin Solo FX case for my iPhone 3G - I love the case itself (it’s very thin but provides great non-skid coverage for my iPhone. The covering really looks like high-gloss hard plastic.
However, I really HATE the mirror-finish screen film protector. It makes the screen harder to see and read. Luckily I had also purchased a back-up iSkin clear film screen protector as a back-up.
Based on this experience, I would recommend the Solo over the Solo FX.
