I was tempted to get this until I saw that the case doesnt give the screen any protection at all.
My thoughts exactly. While I truly appreciate the company inventing a $24.99 case to protect my $6.99 battery cover...:confused:.. Slightly feel like I am getting ripped off.

Now if the company made a couple of the Iphone 4 cases for the fascinate.... I might be more inclined to purchase one.... namely this big grizzly bear -> http://www.myincipio.com/iPhone-4-Cases-Accessories/Incipio-iPhone-4-EDGE-Hard-Shell-Slider-Case.asp :eek:

I have that case but the build quality leaves something to be desired and its thick, enough to make it a noticeable difference to the profile of the phone.

I was looking at this case as a phone that will provide some protection without adding too much bulk. I do have one concern if anyone can answer. I use the OEM car mount and was wondering if the phone would still fit with the case on. It would be super annoying to have to take the case off every time I mount it, which is multiple times a day.

Gorilla glass doesn't protect from drops, only scratches. Also, if the phone falls on it's face, it's better to have something absorb the shock other than the phone's body

The monkey goods really help though. Have you seen any torture tests for it? Theres one where a guy drops the phone flat on its glass screen on concrete 5 times from 5 feet up and nothing happens. On the 6th or 7th time and at about 6.5 or 7ft up in the air it finally breaks. So were pretty guarded. I would get this case for sure if it came in white.

Just picked up this case this week. I have been looking for a slim snap on case since i will take it off for use in my dock. It fits the phone great and gives it nice protection to the back with out adding really any girth to it.

Thanks for the find. I will try to take some pics tomorrow and get them up.
