All I wanna do is have my iPhone around my neck, under my clothes. Most phones have a little passage way so you can attach a neck holder thing then put it around your neck but the iPhone doesn't. Are there any cases that aren't big and bulky and can attach neck holders to? I mean one of these:

Thanks in advance. :)

Why is it a bit "show off" he said under his clothes, so no one would actually see his iPhone?

Gosh, the iPhone does seem to lack basic phone things :/

I'll find out where one of my friend's got her iPhone cover, which is quite thin and has a loop bit (as far as I can tell).

It's not to show off or anything, I just want to be extra safe with my current iPhone and I'll be able to use it when I get the 3GS as well. I've lost/killed 4 iphones in the space of a few months and none of that would of happened if I'd of had it around my neck.

Well I suggest you stop throwing it at the wall :P

I've had the iPhone 3g then 3gs for over a year (3g) and now. I play football and stuff but mine has a big white rubber cover around it and it does the job. I've even dropped it down my stairs and not a scratch.

I bought a case extremely similar to this for a fiver off ebay but after 2 days I was fed up of it's bulkyness, I could hardly get it in and out of my jean pockets. :/

And btw I'm not showing off with that picture of all the iphones I've had, I have insurance so it's not as if I've gone out and bought them all lol.

I used to have a case for my iPod touch before I got my iPhone, I sold it along with the iPod though so at the moment my 3G S just sits in my pocket which I think is fine, it's insured anyway. Take a look at Proporta.com (http://www.proporta.com/) some of their cases are quite slim and comfortable, nothing to help carry around your neck though.

Thanks but I'd probably buy the case and get annoyed with it in a few days. Do you think it would be possible for me to melt a small hole through the corner of it and just stick the wire thing through that? Obviously I'd find out which corner would be able to survive a hole through it.

i have just a rubber silicone case around mine - reall great.

The plastic covers that got on the back suck. My current one is really good and looks nice.

For better grip and to stop scratches to the back of your iPhone, i suggest to just order the back piece from here; http://www.bestskinsever.com/servlet/the-88/iPhone-3G-Skin/Detail - only about £5 with postage I think, well worth it!

I use this and a rubber belkin silicone case also, works great! :)

I got an iPod Touch one from HMV, rubber it was. Made by Exspect.(www.exspect.co.uk) It has a little rubber circle at the bottom of it to allow a neck strap, maybe try them?

I got it a while ago mind you.

I bought a pack of 5 silicone cases for my iPod Touch 2G from Play.com, only like £4 too. They came with a lanyard type of dealy and has two holes at the back so you can fit things like these through.
