"Partially protects your iPhone and organizes the earbud cable."

by EdCraig on September 21, 2007

Pros: It will prevent dings to the case if you drop it (and you know you will eventually). It looks cool. It keeps your earbud cable organized, ready to use, but discreetly tucked away till you need it

Cons: It does not protect the screen. You have to remove it to use the iPhone dock or hoster case.
Summary: I dropped my iPod once and dinged a corner. No big deal, just a cosmetic blemish, but it bugs me. When I saw the DLO JamJacket for the iPhone, it seemed like a obvious solution for that potential hazard. And it is a good way to keep the earbud cord handy but, discreetly tucked away until I need it. After all, unlike the iPod, you use the iPhone in ways that do not require the headset: phone, web browsing, email, etc. But I also knew I did not want to carry my iPhone around in my pocket. I wanted a belt holder, like I have for my iPod, so I bought Belkin Slim-Fit Case for iPhone - holster bag Belkin Slim-Fit Case for iPhone. Both products work great by themselves, but not together. The iPhone with the JamJacket will not fit in the Slim-Fit Case. Nor will the iPhone with JamJacket fit in the iPhone dock. So, I am constantly putting the JamJacket on and removing it, and deciding whether or not I should use the JamJacket or the Slim-Fit case for any particular occasion.

Besides which, it does not protect the screen, which concerns me. I have not had time to research a good product for that -- one which hopefully will be compatible with the cases. I wanted the device to simplify my life, not complicate it.

Can't some manufacturer come up with an all-in-one solution -- something that will protect the case and the display, and hold the earbud cord, that I can attach securely to my belt? Call me a dreamer...
