Don't tell me you don't like freebies, because I won't buy that in a thousand years! No matter how far would go some people in saying they don't want anything to fall from the sky, freebies aren't exactly like that, after all. Even when I have to speak for myself, I must tell you that I always enjoy things I worked for more than freebies, but let's get to the point - iPhone 3G cases for free!
I know some may think "Wow! For FREE!!! Where do I sign up?" and start looking for some text entry fields to drop their personal data and receive their Shades for iPhone 3G, but things are not that simple... you will pay, my friends, you will pay, but that's what we'll find out more about a bit later.
In my opinion, there's a point where you start looking for the right case to protect your iPhone 3G, iPod, or other device - price! If it's free, that's even better, but I think price is the first thing to have in mind, because there are a lot of products doing basically the same thing, but for completely different prices. If you miss these free Shades, you don't have to worry - one is priced at $16.95, so you won't have to break the porcelain pig to get it!
Next, there are only a few things I need to get from my gadgets' cases, like easy access to the ports and controls, decent protection to shocks, and a nice color. For me, anything goes, as long as it's black! I don't need them to be washable, because I am not rolling in the dirt with my gadgets on, but for those of you that really need to take their gadgets in dirty places, here's what the Shades for iPhone 3G is offering:
- Light Polyurethane build, with only 0.4 mm in thickness
- For those green ones of you, it should be a pleasure to find out that the Shades cases are 100% recyclable
- Easy access to iPhone's ports, so you won't have to remove the case when docking
- A wide range of color schemes available - Clearly Original for full transparency, Aqua, Serene Green, Rosy Red, Sunrise Orange, Sunshine Yellow, Midnight Black, Cool Blue, Hot Pink, Ultra Violet, and Black & Clear.
- Easily washable with water and soap.
Of course you'll still be able to use the touchscreen after gently sliding your iPhone 3G into the protective cover of the Shades, and once you've done that, your beloved iPhone will be as secure as a child in his mother's womb, but be sure not to use it for playing darts or football! After all, this is just a case for your iPhone, not a safe!
Now, the final part of the October giveaway - to enter, be sure to drop a comment below and tell us what's your favorite color from the list above, and why. A little story about that color, true or fictional, could also help!
At last, you can also try your luck with the Shades giveaways from our friends at TechPin and CameraPhonesPlaza. These being said, I only have to add one thing: Good Luck!!!

I can't participate in the giveaway as I know the BindApple team, but I want to be the first to post my opinion.
It's simple, I like the Ultra Violet case because it inspires me energy and I see it in the same group with pink and orange, which are the other colors I like. My favorite color is green but as the iPhone is black I wouldn't want to create a high contrast between the phone's back and the transparent color on it. I think violet is perfect to make the iPhone look cooler than it already is, without disturbing my friends' eyes.
