Re: Hero protection

I have noticed that boxwave has an aluminum case called armor but it is listed under the htc hero and not the sprint hero. Anyone know if it will work with the sprint hero?

That's what I thought till I put my phone in the same pocket as my keys last night and now I got mini scratches on it. I'm PISSED! Need to get one ASAP!

I went the cheap route. Reused my diamonds rubber casing =D the charging port matches up and the camera hole also. It's a tight fit but it works for now until something better comes out

It figures. I was hoping to find an aluminum case for this things. Those aluminum cases have really paid for themselves in the past for me.

Re: Hero protection

Finally picked up my Hero this weekend. Before buying it, I ordered a hard rubber case for it off of eBay and it turned out great. Only $5.99 and I'm pleasantly surprised at the quality. I picked hard rubber instead of silicone since silicone usually picks up a lot of dust. We'll see how this works out.

Now this morning, I ordered some screen protectors. In the past, I've always ordered Zagg or Invisible Shield. They work well, but are a bit more expensive. So, I thought I'd give eBay another try. $3.99 for 5 free shipping. Apparently they're on sale for today, down from $9.99.

Better safe than sorry, right?

I have one of those on my iPod Touch and it's awesome. Just picked up a Hero a couple hours ago and am about to order a full-body Zagg for it.

Re: Hero protection

I went with the zagg screen protector, which after I bought came out with full body wrap. So you have two options with that, also cant go wrong with zaggs lifetime warentee. I have a hard plastic rubberish case that locks around the phone that has a nob on the back of the case that hooks into the little clip that i put on my belt.
