Grantwood Technology, LLC today announced the release of the QuickFlipCase for iPhone and iPhone 3G, a premium leather case designed to comfortably secure the iPhone in place on your belt or waist.

The QuickFlipCase for iPhone is a soft, premium leather hip case for both the original iPhone and iPhone 3G. This horizontally designed case features a smooth leather exterior with contrast stitching, a secure magnetic closing mechanism, and a sturdy, permanent belt clip. Removing the iPhone is easy thanks to a small cutout in the center.

While the iPhone is inside the case, you can still access the headphone jack and sleep/wake button, and the iPhone speakers are not covered, so you won't miss that important call.

"Building on the success of our tuneband armband for the iPhone," states Michael Banks, co-founder and CEO of Grantwood Technology, LLC, "we wanted to have a leather iPhone case designed with all the best features without the expense of competing products."

The QuickFlipCase for the iPhone is compatible with both the original iPhone and the new iPhone 3G, and retails for $18.99 USD.
