It would be very beneficial to the customer if you came out with a case at the same time as the phone. When I bought my ESSENTIAL PH1 from Sprint they said they had no cases yet for phone. Needless to say I didn't have it very long and I ended up dropping it from a sitting position and it smashed the screen. Had there been a case out when I bought it, then it would have been protected and not smashed. I am very dissapointed that the "talk" and advertising of this phone spoke highly of the gorilla glass and ceramic back. But yet here I sit with a broken phone. Other then that issue, I am really happy with my phone. So please make sure the case is available to the consumers when you roll out ESSENTIAL 2
