if you read the replies the coupon code was posted on post number 16.

i called earlier today and asked about the status of my order. this lady said the same thing the last lady said, they're having problems with the system and don't know when the case will be shipped. Not sure if that means if shipping status isn't being updated. She went ahead and offered my an aditional 10% off so now my case only cost me $27.96.

hopefully it comes soon!

Thanks NJAZ and gio_Az!
So far so good and I am getting used to sliding open the keyboard with a little more pressure and beginning to like the smooth finish as it slides easier into my pocket.

How hard is it to take off the rear cover for times where you have to pull the battery? This is probably where my Body Glove case tabs fatigued and broke.
It does take more effort in removing the back cover and I usually end up pulling the actual back cover off on the left side of the phone where the tabs are in doing so. Though the tabs seem sturdy enough compared to other makers I am still a little careful with it as to not cause too much strain on the tabs.

I ordered my case over the weekend and the most I got was a tracking number that tells me USPS has been notified of a package to be picked up. I'm getting a little worried it hasn't shipped yet

Edit: Right after posting this the mailman came with my case.

To those who got the case how is it? Does it seems like it is going to hold up? Thanks for your answers.

After waiting so long my case finally arrived! I love this case! The whole look and feel of this case is awesome! This case does feel like it will hold up and lass long. it does add bulk and weight to the phone, but not too much. Still fits in my leathe case.

Oh if anyone here uses the small hole in the back to add a lanyard charm wrist strap or something, this case doesnt have a hole for that.

Mine's holding up great and unfortunately had it's first trial by fire, but the case and phone held up amazing (which was a lifesaver).

Wasn't so much a drop for me, as it was joining my body in hitting asphalt with a forward velocity of 38mph, bouncing twice and landing 10 feet away from where the phone and I originally hit the ground.

Long story short, I now recommend otterbox to all my cycling buddies.

after dropping mine a few times since i first put it on, once accidentally dropped from about 3 feet onto the concrete and another time on to asphalt while on a run, the case is holding up better than expected. There are a couple minor scratches on the case but not really noticeable. what i really like is the front piece to the case, which with previous cases would pop off immediately after a fall, this one has not pop off at all since i got it. and yes i have had to take it off a few times for a battery pull so the tabs are holding up just fine. overall, more than pleased with my purchase

Just successfully ordered mine direct from otterbox. There's a 20% coupon code on retailmenot now and they're waiving shipping today. Don't know how long that will last, but it's the best deal I've seen thus far.

I paid $27.96 out the door.
