Rocketfish Silicone/Gel Case *Thumbs Up*

Yea, so im very VERY picky about what i put on my phone.. it needs to protect, it needs to have grip, it needs to be simple with no crazy designed and logos, it needs to be very low profile.

I came across the rocketfish gel/silicone case/skin for the EVO.
Best buy, $20. Heckuva lot cheaper than the other options out there.
Slipped it on and its amazingly perfect for my tastes. Rocketfish had another type of skin, but it had diagonal edges in the corners, this doesnt.

Combined with my clarivue screen protector, i think my evo is well ready for ease of handling.
Since the clarivue screen protector leaves a small gap on both sides of the glass (clarivue needs to address this size cut issue), this silicone skin covers that up which is great.

PROS: Low profile, good grip, no crazy designs and colors/logos, snug fit, protects the camera. Not a hassle to take off.

CONS: The power button and volume buttons are actually covered by the gel, so its very hard to press and get response from the buttons, my idea and suggestion would be to use an xacto knife and trim it out myself. Im pretty good with an xacto so this should be a nice touchup. Glossy silicone which will show scratches and wear. Matte flat wouldve been better for the rear.
