I'm definitely getting an Ozone,thanks to everyone's suggestions.Because I work in a rough environment(construction),what kind of case do you suggest.I Know nothing of cases,all I have ever had are flip style phones.

I know I already have a vote for the otterbox,but should I pay more for the case than the phone? :-(

I always get cheap ebay cases but that is just me. I would get something rubberized in case you drop it. Does the otterbox offer insurance for your phone?

I got the otterbox on it,it came with a clear plastic screen protector that you laminate to the screen.It has a rubber surround that goes around the back and edges of the phone.Then it has a hard shell that goes over the rubber.It fits nice and seems to be a nice protector.

Problem is...the thing is slick.The hard shell has kind of a textured matte finish,that believe it or not makes it more slippery than the phone itself.Forget one-handed operation,this thing slides out of my hand half the time.I can imagine setting it on the seat of my truck,this thing will go flying.

I think I need something completely rubberized,or to fit over the hard shell.The first rubber layer probably fits a little loosely to use by itself.I think if you were the type who was grabbing the phone out of your pocket at light speed everytime a text came in you would be fine,but I really don't whip it out that often.

You probably need to other OtterBox version. There are usually 2 or 3 versions for each phone. Get one that's rubber only.

Your right.I bought the "Defender",which has 2 layers,a rubber layer and a hardshell that fits over it.I'm going to try the "Impact",which is like a heavy rubber skin that fits over the phone,no hardshell.
