Well, I hate to be the bearer of bad news but that case has a common flaw present in several early cases: the top border blocks the available light sensor preventing auto brightness from working properly. I found this out the hard way as my CTStore case from Amazon had that problem.

I just picked-up the Apple case today and I like it's thinness and the feel of the material has just the right amount of grip and feels good in my hands. And, of course, Apple is aware of their own light sensor so it doesn't have that flaw.
