I'm writing up a power support flat bumper review, any questions anyone wants answered, or details?

I'll include any posts here in an FAQ.

Is the edge along the screen really a dust magnet? I really hate those rubbery sides since they pick up so much lint when being pulled in and out of your pocket. No point in having a very sexy looking case but then being so easily dirtied.

Can't speak for the PS but I do not have any issue with dust/Lint with the Neo Hybrid EX. Maybe because my pockets aren't "Linty"? :)

No it doesn't really attract that much lint and dust. Maybe just the occasional one or two? :)

Heh heh, I have allergies so I always have a tissue or two in my pocket. Might be the cause of the lintiness. However, a hard plastic case like the SGP Slim Metal EX works for me as it doesn't have any rubbery sides.

I'd really like to give this case a go. Never owned a PowerSupport case but the screen protectors were one of the best I have ever used. The cutting was close to perfection!

Is it bulky, or hard to use one handed compared to the Caze Thin Edge &
Does the case slip off the phone when you take it out of your pocket like the neo hybrid ex slim does

Thanks dude

Pictures of the bumper laying beside the phone to compare thickness. Also laying beside other cases that you may have.

Ill second the question: how does it stack up to the Power Support bumper? In terms of

Protection ( lay on the table, proneness to slippage) and Durability (ability to survive a fall)
Fit
looks (how seamless it is with the iphone aesthetic)
overall better buy

Would you also say that the Power Support Bumper and the Caze ThinEdge are the top two (2) plastic bumper cases available in the market today?

Hopefully, the review will be released soon:) A retailer in my area is selling one of each - yes, last two stocks! and I need to make a choice ASAP lest I lose the opportunity to buy either one. And, as you know, the Power Support is a bit difficult to source.
