Does anyone know how Kiwi's can partake in the Free Case program? I tried to download the App to my iPhone but I get error messages - as if it doesn't exist for users outside of the US. Anyone have any info?

I thought the free case/bumper offer ended in September?

Well, I may have found a loophole.

I downloaded the app using a US account, then ran it, entered my NZ account details, and selected a case - confirmed my address - and received a success confirmation message...

Perhaps the case won't be sent - but it certainly worked like it was going to be sent.

I'll keep you posted.

Swype on iOS is detrimental to accurate typing. Apologies in advance.

Ordered a speck pixelwhatever. Probably won't use it over my gelaskin though.

Don't see why you would order a bumper. There will be 2$ rip offs all over the place in a few months.

It is not for iPad... just iPhone. It uses the ID of the phone as part of the order to ensure you are entitled to the case/bumper and also whether you have already submitted an order for that iPhone.
