Antimicrobial silicon iPhone case puts germs in their place

It seems like a day can't go by when we hear about another iPhone accessory of some sort...and here's another. This time around it's an Antimicrobial Silicon Case for the iPhone 3GS from the folks at Proporta, which comes available in black with a gray interior. The company claims that mobile phones have on average 25,127 germs per square inch, while a toilet seat only has 49 germs per square inch. (I wonder where they get these numbers from???) The antimicrobial coating on the case is said to stop germs from spreading and growing. One user over at PalmAddicts has tried the antimicrobial case and likes it so far, saying that it provides a great grip and while his coworkers are sick, he's not. The Antimicrobial Silicon Case goes for £14.95 and comes with a lifetime warranty.
