We like creating stuff, making stuff, designing stuff and obviously Apple stuff. Chris is an Industrial designer and Rob is an ideas man. Together they combine their skills to make things happen... like the Opena Case.
Hi Joathan, that's no good. Shoot us an email with your details and we'll see if we can sort something out for you. info@annexproducts.com
I really like the 2 I got, but the plastic around the volume controls seems to be very brittle.. and they broke.. only complaint... great product otherwise.
You guys rock my life!!!! I'm proud of being a backer and I ever will! Thanks guys!
Congratulations on being featured on MacRumors!
Hi Paul, can you send us another email to info@openacase.com and we'll chase it up for you.
Thanks
Chris and Rob
Have all the orders gone out?
I am in Canada and Have still not gotten mine. I have also emailed you guys with no response.
Got mine! Fits like a glove and is awesome (as predicted), will post some pictures to the Facebook account when I get my iPhone 4S the next time I open some brewskis! Thanks guys!
Ur right! I tuned it and it works better ;-) thanks guys
Hi William
Sound like you need to tune it. See here for more detail

Cheers
I got mines today! And it looks great...but! I toke it to work to show off and use it cause I bartend. Well after my shift I also had noticed that the opener simply falls now :-( without my trying to pop it out,! Any suggestion! Should I send back ;-(
I got my opena yesterday and it looks great. I have noticed that it slides out when I am holding the phone or take it out of my pocket. This has become a bot of a nuisance. Any suggestions?
Mine arrived yesterday and looks and works great. It arrived four days too late to give the second one to my mate who was visiting from the UK, but hey - it'll be a nice reminder of his holiday in Aus when I send it to him. Cheers guys.
Brilliant! Fits iPhone 4S! :D
Got mine in the mail today! Looks awesome, about to try it on a beer now. Thanks guys!
And tomorrow we get to see if this is an iPhone 4S/iPhone 5 case as well!
Hi Guys,
Just encase you missed it on Twitter, Facebook or the last Kickstarter update, all orders are now shipping and it's only taken 3 months which is an extremely fast turn around for a Kickstarter project!! We can't wait to hear how much all you guys love using the Opena and what crazy moves you can come up with.
Guys, calm the crap down, this is Kickstarter we're talking about, not eBay! The aim of this website is to fund startups, not bloody sell products, that's an added bonus. Please guys, take your time and make sure the final products are up to your specifications rather than rush them out to us, we can wait a few extra weeks.
Though... I am gifting one of mine to a friend so before christmas would be nice, but I'm sure this won't be a problem :P
Yeah if you are delayed please post you are delayed. So people remain happy and aware....
Posted on September 1
Hey Backers, As we will be starting to ship units in about 2 weeks...
We're going on 3 weeks now.. Getting tired of waiting!
I AM SO FRICKING EXCITED FOR MY OPENAS!
Any updates guys?
It's mid-September! : )
Thanks Richard. Yeah we trying to save space and keep the packaging pretty minimal.
Take your time guys and get it right.. You only get one chance to make a first impression. How's the packaging looking?
We will be shipping in mid September. Production took a little longer than we expected but still a pretty quick turn around!!
Am in Vegas! Been waiting on my order for awhile now! What's the hold up?
Hey Kevin,
Just send us an email: info@openacase.com
Cheers
My Address changed what should i do?
We're in production and should be shipping units at the end of the month.
Staying tuned...any updates?
Hey Kevin,
We're doing our best to get them shipped by the end of August. We'll keep you posted so stay tuned!
Whats your best guess on when you'll be shipping to America?
Hey Marcus,
We are limited to what the kickstarted platform provides and in most cases it's awesome but for the mates rates radio buttons aren't ideal. As long as you filled in the bottom question, which it sounds like you did al should be fine.
Oh and we are talking to a few Aussie beer companies at the moment, not yet Coopers but Val Ale are getting some custom Opena's. Have you tried McLaren Vale's Vale Ale? It's beautiful!! Broos also a nice drop and we love how they started their company too!!
Heya. Radio buttons only provide one option, but I do want a white AND a black one (I'm another mates rates pledger). I think I made that sort of clear in the questionnaire thing anyway. I think. But, there should've either been a drop-down with numbers or checkboxes rather than radio buttons.
I'm a big fan of radio buttons, but not when you want to pick multiple options. That's where the check boxes or drop-downs come in.... ;)
PS: need Coopers coloured green or customisable ones (beer companies...especially Coopers) for promotional reasons. That would be awesome.
Was the green only for the $75 pledge? If so...bummed :(
Sorry mate, didn't mean to sound rude this morning (yesterday evening for you I suppose hehe), I was in a hurry for work and just typed something because I didn't wanna forget about it.
Awesome! Can't wait to receive them! :D
Adrian... Noted.
I want a black and a white one, I pledged at the mate's rates level. Please note this down! One is for a friend who has a black iPhone 4, and one is for my white one.
Hey E-Man
We haven't sent the questions out yet as we want to get it right and only do it once. Be on the way soon mate.
Thanks
Hi, i have pledged but am yet to receive a questionnaire, have they been sent or am i just impatient?
Hi Kevin
No stress we'll be sending out the questionnaire shortly asking for choice of color and shipping address. I have a feeling a lot of people like the green!!
Thanks Rob and Chris
I pledged $75 for the limited edition early, before you had the green option, when will we get to chose what color we want?
Think we will send out the questionnaire this Friday.
When will you start asking for postal addresses ?
All done
Hey Peter
Just send USD10 to sales@originsystems.com.au via paypal. Let us know when you do.
Thanks mate
Lads, ordered the $50 one from you but I'm in the UK. I understand you need USD10 more postage. How do I get this to you?
Brendan - from what the press are 'guessing' the iPhone 5 will not be a major remodel. Hopefully case will still fit but it would be just like Apple to change a couple of bits to make you buy all your accessories again...
Thanks Brendan
Yep all backers can choose between white and black!
