How are iPod silicone cases, Apple iPhone 3G, and iPhone silicone cases different than the cell phone ones?
They are different because of the Apple iPhone 3G’s and iPhone’s touch screen capability and the iPod’s click wheel function. In order for those devices to be functional while being protected by the silicone cases, the silicone cases cannot cover the area where the touch screen and click wheel are at. Like the pictures below, the iPhone silicone case is mostly installed to protect the back and the side of the device.
