Review: Griffin Elan Passport Wallet (iPhone 4)

Modern day men and women are empowered with all sorts of information and gadgetry.  We are blessed with amazing technology but at the same time, tied down by them.  A typical modern person's valet tray on their night stand may include the following: wallet, house keys, car key, iPhone(personal), BlackBerry(work), watch, jewelry, etc.  That's a lot of stuff to carry around but Griffin might just have a solution, to help minimize some of the stuff you carry.

Griffin Elan Passport Wallet (MSRP $40) for iPhone 4.  The concept is simple, a folio style case that looks like a leather business card holder that holds your iPhone 4 on one side and three holding slots which can be used to hold small amount of personal belonging.  This case is perfect to double up as a wallet so you can now combine the wallet and iPhone into one item to carry around.  I think its even more convincing if you already use a cool bluetooth headset such as the Jawbone Prime, then you can do most of your conversations with the phone in the case.  Griffin has done a great job with precise cut outs for all the buttons and functions that needs to be accessed (ie. audio jack, camera/flash, speakers/mic, data port cutouts).  The case looks sporty with a racing leather like surface and a dark chrome accent (which I could have done without).  Overall, I'd say this is the perfect 2-in-1 case for your iPhone 4 and substitute for a minimalist who just need to carry a couple of cards; those with George Costanza's wallet probably should look else where :)
