You shouldn't need a case; if people wanted phones to be thicker (as they are when in a case), batteries would be larger and there might even be room for a headphone jack or microSD slot or something. Anyway, putting it in a case negates the whole idea; at that point it might as well be that off-white-almost-yellow of PC's from the 1980's.
