Here is the link to the official Body Glove website: http://www.bodyglove.com/store/products_detail.php?product_id=32616

However I suggest using eBay when buying accessories. You can get them for WAY cheaper. This is the seller I used. Free overnight FedEx shipping: http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-VERIZON-MOTOROLA-DROID-A855-BODY-GLOVE-SNAP-ON-CASE_W0QQitemZ330383084571QQcmdZViewItemQQptZPDA_Accessories?hash=item4cec5dcc1b#ht_2390wt_1165

Hey,

I bought mine from the verizon store. Most likely overpaid (29) i think. But it was part of a gift, sooo.
It's made by body glove. Speaker, camera, and all notification lights are completely exposed. I would say it's about a 1/4 inch thick, so it does add that to the phone. It's black rubbery material. Dimpled. Which is pretty cool, doesn't slide around the dash all that much. With it i also got a three pack of screen protectors i guess you would call them. They work great. There is no performance loss. LOVE both pieces.

Overall the phone looks pretty cool with the case on.

I first had the Body Glove case but due to the thickness found that it affected the flash coverage and I switched to the leather Motorola case which is much thinner and it fixed the problem.

DON'T USE BODY GLOVE CASE!
I got my phone today (finally) and one of the first things I did was try to put on my Body Glove case. Bad idea. When putting on the bottom half, it almost broke my phone. The frame of the phone came off of the slide out keyboard right below the space bar. I had to push pretty hard to snap it back in place. Not good. The frame still has a slight bend to it, so I am pretty ticked that this case I bought can't even be used.

Phone is all set up. Love it! I actually just spent some time looking at the Body Glove case, and I decided to give it one more shot. I was able to put it on correctly this time, and so far so good. When it is on, it covers up the bent frame so that is good at least. Will see if I like it. It does add some bulk to the phone, but I was used to my Curve with Otterbox case on it which was HUGE.

Just wanted to let y'all know that I got a case from www.siedioonline.com and I love it!

It's a lovely shade of purple, easy on my ear and feels great...silky to the touch.

BTW...they also sell docks that work with their cases.

Nope...I don't work for them. HA! Grin

I've had the Body Glove since I got the phone a couple of weeks ago. I love the feel and have gotten used to the "bulk" as its been on since Day 1. As has been stated here, the case has like a basketball or football feel. I have larger hands and I don't have to put a death grip on the phone to ensure that it won't slide out of my hand.

I have tried taking the back, larger part of the Body Glove off to see the difference and the case is tough to take off the phone. It is obvious that the Body Glove is not a case that is meant to be taken off and on regularly. As a case for overall protection, I do like it. I slip the phone into various coat pockets, side and front, and shirt pockets and have had no issues.

If you choose to change the case on a regular basis for different situations, this is not one to look at. But if you want what appears to be good drop or scratch protection, this looks very good.

By far the BEST case that I have seen so far is the Armor Case - The Metal Case (Black) for Motorola Droid - bw-51-3748-2924, that I found on Buy.com.
It is made of anodized aluminum that is strong yet lightweight, and comes either in natural aluminum or black, and is a perfect fit for the 'Droid. It has a hinged side that allowes you to open it and use the slider keyboard without taking it out of the case, and comes with a removalbe belt clip attachment that allows 360 degree swing on your belt/pocket/purse, etc.
This, along with a good quality screen protector. will give you about the best protection that you can have, while still allowing full use of all the phones features with zero bulk. The case runs around $28.00, and to me worth every penny. I had this case 2 days after ordering it.
Here is a link to the black case: http://www.buy.com/retail/product.asp?sku=213724666
