Sweet­ness! Finally. I’ve heard so much good things about the Incase Slider (case) for the first-gen iPhones. I rig­or­ously tried to do some research if there were any for the iPhone 3G a few weeks ago. I later found out even­tu­ally that it won’t be released till mid-August (now). At least, it’s here and that Incase has kept true to their words.

Here’s a brief descrip­tion that was on the Incase Slider for iPhone 3G:

Our most pop­u­lar case for the first gen­er­a­tion iPhone is now avail­able for iPhone 3G. For the finest in sleek, durable pro­tec­tion, the Slider Case for iPhone 3G is made of hard­shell plas­tic and fea­tures a min­i­mal wall thick­ness of 1mm. Inte­rior rub­ber guardrails pro­vide shock absorp­tion in addi­tion to impact and scratch protection.

Fea­tures

* Durable iPhone 3G pro­tec­tion
* Light­weight hard­shell plas­tic con­struc­tion
* Direct access to widescreen
* Easy access to all con­trols and device fea­tures
* Allows charg­ing while in case or bot­tom cover slides away for dock­ing
* Avail­able in matte and gloss finishes

I think I’ll be grab­bing one of the “black matte” ones soon. Although the “white gloss” ver­sion is look­ing clean too. I’m say­ing this because I have a 16GB Black, and I can always just take out the case if I am wear­ing a suit or some­thing (which hap­pens rarely, but been numer­ous lately due to weddings).

All-in-all, I think it’ll be sell­ing like hot cakes as the case for the first-gen did very well and left a very fla­vor­ful impres­sion amongst iPhone-case fan­boys, and fan­girls. Then again, I might be wrong—different stroke for dif­fer­ent folks.

Update
For a walk­through of the Slider’s func­tion­al­ity, here’s a video review of the Incase Slider for the first-gen:
