Manufacturing Apple Cases of Titanium

I was thinking of designing iphone, ipad, etc.. cases. I want to make them out of Titanium, does anyone know much a prototype would cost? Where I can I go get one?

Or where can I go to find out information??
 
If you are going to do some prototype or low number runs builds from Ti then make them from DMLS/SLS. You can get a near net shape and then just need to do minimal machining/polishing. I work in medical devices and we use this process when doing prototype or one-off designs for surgical instruments. I'll PM you one one of vendors and the contact there.
 
Hmmm can't seem to PM you do to a Visual Basic script error:


<div style="margin-left: 40px;">Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01f4'

Variable is undefined: 'strCAPTCHAversion'

/proe/forum/CAPTCHA/CAPTCHA_form_inc.asp, line 46

You're right I am looking for another material now.
What's a good, strong flexible rubber?

What' about aluminum??
 
Various iPhone 4 in the market and online stores such as
Amazon,ebay.com and slickfans.com all have iPhone 4 metal
case, and the key points is iPhone 4 has released 1 year
already and seems good to prepare for the next iPhone 5
case...
