What cases are y'all getting? I've always used speck cases but don't want to drop $45 on a case.

I use the Apple leather case. More for flattening of the back than for the protection. I don't use a screen protector since I got on the iPhone upgrade program.

Me pelican has held up great to many many drunk drops. It's kinda low profile too. There are different ones that are more bulky than others.

I see pelican is making a clear one for the 7 & 7+. I may get an amazon cheapo and wait for that one.

I originally had a delivery date estimation between oct 4-10 for a 7+ 128 matte black, now shipped with 9/21 delivery date.

Is this through apple, or your carrier?

Was gonna get a cheaper silicone on amazon, but I think I'll spring for the apple silicone for $40. Looks like you get what you pay for.

Have a cheaper one now and the buttons dont work very well with it on.

My verizon ship date still hasn't changed (9/28) but I have friends on AT&T with ship dates in October that got a notice today that their phone shipped.

I've been checking all day hoping for an update. Online says ship 9/28. Email says deliver by 9/28. Still "processing" though.

Verizon folks, how long did it take for your order to get out of processing?

Checked online today and my ship date disappeared

I called up and they said it is updating ship dates as they receive phones (date should move up but not move back). She also said it will remain processing until they get your phone in. Once received, they will process the payment, and ship it.
