Ditto. I like it a lot, you can get it at BB in Canada. Doesn't provide that much drop protection but its better than nothing, it looks good, has a lip that protects the screen but does not cause the SGP to peel up. I have the Olio as well and its a perfect match.
Got a tip for us?

Thanks for everything guys...If I were to get a screen protector, lucky labs decal for the sides, and a skin on the back would it be just aesthetics rather than actual protection?
My other option seems to be the case-mate barely there with an SGP screen protector

see i've heard that but i have never experienced that with any of mine and i'm kind of hard on cases. maybe i've just been lucky who knows
Are the pictures right - does the clear version not have the cut out?
I saw a you tube review slating the barely there - their main criticism was that it was such as precise fit that it didn't work with back film protectors (which is also stated on case-mate's web site), and they felt that because the cut out would allow extra dirt/dust/sand in yet couldn't use a protective film it was likely the back would get scratched, especially the exposed logo.
Have people had issues with previous iPhones getting scratched where dirt has got between the case and the iPhone?
So far I've never used an iPhone case (I've owned all models of iPhone), the iPhone 4 seems so much more fragile than the previous ones that I'm feeling I need to this time.
here is a great photo man. you can see the case doesn't cover the front of the phone so you can easily use almost any screen protector with it

Thanks. Presumably for the camera and flash the cutout needs to be big. Glad it doesn't have the apple logo cutout though. Was asking about the logo cutout because I saw what must have been some old images of the clear version with the cutout. Maybe they changed the design at the last minute.
Having never used a case on previous iPhones I think I'm going to end up with about 4 or 5 cases to try! I've ordered the IvySkin Reception, SwitchEasy Colours, PixelSkin HD, Zagg InvisibleShield full protection - and I'll presumably be getting something free from Apple. I guess I'll start with whatever arrives first and if I don't like it then I'll try the next, and any that don't get used I'll sell! When I first started looking into cases I was hoping for something that would fit into a dock. The IvySkin reception case apparently can do this, though not sure whether to believe, or whether it will ever arrive!
Thanks for the great picture! I think I am going to settle with the feather case..it looks really nice and thin
well i am happy with it. honestly, i need to just need to stay offline because each day i see a new case or new accessorie that I like more than what I have. I have like 4 cases already lol
