There's a good idea, but have to say, I find those outer cases so slick as to represent a greater risk of dropping than any other case used so far. Ditto the curvature of their form coupled with the slick pollish of them means they skitter about all over a table at the least provokation if feeling around for it. The Otterbox and Griffins used thus far have enough rubber onn, that I always lay them face down, quite safely, and they're solid and never move about. This also applies to users who put their phone above the dashboardof a car, which is weaving through traffic at a good clip. The rubber ones don't and won't slide back and fro for anything.
Besides, it is the rubber that gives some bounce, it will also hold the hard shell together around the phone if that did crack up, or seams burst open.

I've always used the Defender cases and some have been better than others. Someone earlier mentioned Griffin Survivor; can someone who has one talk about it and how it compares to the Defender cases?
