Unfortunately, Steve Jobs passed away before the hugely successful launch of the iPhone 4S last Friday, but we’re certain he had lots of time to play around with it while it was in testing at Apple’s headquarters in Cupertino. If you’d like to use your shiny new device to pay your respects to its creator, these Steve tribute cases that were found in Thailand should do the trick.
The photos were sent to us by a reader who discovered them in the MBK Shopping Center in Bangkok. I’m not overly keen on the two below, but I think the one at the top of this post is pretty awesome.
What do you think? Would you like a Steve Jobs tribute case?

Do you know if you’re able to buy them online? I’d love to have one!
sure…I would use it. The first one.
Some really terrible photoshopping of Jobs on the the bottom two.
This is horrible.
They are terrible.
Love Apple, Appreciated Steve. No way I’m getting a case.
I wouldn’t use those. The top one is ok, but still wouldn’t use it. The last two are just terrible. They should have licensed out that kids revamped Apple logo with Job’s head as the bite. I’d get that one for sure. In faded black over black.
I saw these on eBay a few days ago, and I’m probably not getting them. Sorry. :/
poor taste
Trademark and copyright issues?

Worst idea ever
Are the owners/photographers getting their royalties for these?
I’m not sure it’s a proper tribute. Not quite classy enough. I do think the now infamous Apple logo with Steve’s profile as the cutout would make a better case though. Something subtle.
Are they the best pics they could use? the top one doesn’t look right with the text off centre. I hope no one buys these.
I like Steve Jobs but it’s sick..
Steve Jobs never used a case though. So if you want to honour him, it would be better to forgo a case altogether. Besides, these are tacky and just intended to cash in on the tragedy. Only an idiot would buy one of these.
Steve Jobs would hate it. So no.
Putting a man that’s died on an iPhone case, calling it a “tribute”, and selling it for money is wrong.
NO! It’s a bit tacky!
