Default E4GT Fishbone Case NO BATTERY COVER=AWESOME

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...00_i00_details

Anyone have any experience with these?
Its in the mail now, should be here Monday.

Will post pics and opinions.

EDIT:

this case is awesome

the fit is perfect, looks great
didnt make it as bulky as i though it would
was running down the stairs into unfinished basement, phone fell out of sweatshirt pocket with all the downward momentum onto concrete
bounced off the floor, not even a mark anywhere


IMPORTAINT:
i think i have discovered something awesome
need someone's thoughts on this
i removed the battery cover, and put on the case, AND ITS EVEN THINNER
i will not be replacing my battery cover after this
someone try this, and let me know what you think

one thing that was semi disappointing,
the black case was a gloss finish, was hoping for matte
will be taking some fine sandpaper to it for a fix

p.s. sorry for all the caps, but if i was telling this to someone, i, in face, would probably raise my voice significantly
i feel like i have made a revolutionary discovery, and perhaps someone should design cases with this in mind

p.p.s. was going to take pics with and without the battery cover, but looks the same, just without the cover the lip in the front seems bigger, if the case was designed for this, it may have been 1.5-2 mm thinner

Mybat fishbone cases are top notch. I had one for my Epic 4G, Evo 4G, Inspire 4G, and Thunderbolt 4G. Talked my friends into getting a set for their Evo 3D's. You definitely won't be disappointed. They coat the plastic in a soft touch rubber surface to add grip and comfort.

The white one is gloss. The dark colored and black ones are soft touch. I had white for my Epic 4G.

As easy as not having a case. It's silicone instead of tpu so it presses with ease.

I had one of these on an iphone. I love it for the 3 months that the silicone lasted before it was stretched out and ugly. I guess for $4 you could replace them that often though without issue.
