Luckily, it looks like I won’t have to make such a sacrifice. The iPhone 3G/3GS ID Credit Card Case (case-mate, $29.99) not only protects my precious iPhone, but it also has a built-in wallet attachment. Seriously, how has it taken someone this long to figure out that this is a good idea? Now, don’t go thinking that you’re gonna be able to fit the entire contents of your Russia-sized wallet in here. You can easily fit a credit card, your ID, and maybe a little bit of cash in here. But really, what else do you need? This setup is perfect for going out to the bar or a nice dinner, when you don’t want your pockets overloaded. The set also comes with a screen protection kit to protect your screen (duh) and an ez-slide protection film so you don’t scratch your phone when attaching the case. And in case you thought this case was going to cramp your style, don’t worry about it – you’ll still have complete access to all the ports and controls on the outside of the iPhone.

This is a seriously good deal. I mean, you’d probably pay the same price for an iPhone case and then have to pay it all over again to get a slim front wallet. It’s basically a 2-for-1 deal going on here. And who doesn’t like a good deal? My thoughts exactly.

5 out of 5 stars.
