I got mine today. Bought it from a seller off ebay. I can't post links yet else I would show you which one. Sorry.
It makes the phone kinda thick and its definitely not rubberized just cheap flimsy plastic. The front cover on mine does not stay on. looks like it was miss manufactured and is missing a tab. Contacted the seller and he's sending me a new front cover. Hopefully this one is better. The back piece stays on pretty solid. In fact I'm scared to take it off. Feels like I might break the tabs on it if I do. Makes it hard to slide the keyboard out lots of resistance but my phones slide is pretty resistive to began with.

I bought one on ebay as well. Maybe it's just my luck, mine works fine, both the front and back cover stays on. I am not sure what the previous poster means by it's not rubberized, mine pretty much feels like the back of the shift but a bit more smooth/less rubbery, if that makes sense.

It does make the shift thicker, but to me it makes sense because it protects the camera lense & screen when you put the phone flat on a surface. But it does make the power button harder to press when I wasn't used to the case. FYI it's about 2mm thinner than the Seidio case, according to my measurement against the measurement someone posted for the Seidio case.

The only thing I don't like about it is that there is a slight bow on the right side of the front cover. You can't tell by looking but it doesn't stay against the side of the screen and there's a slight give when you press on it.
