Most Likely. I want the Defender. The Commuter looks very similar to the Seidio Active (which I currently have).
The simple answer.........YES
I have had 5 cases from Seidio and they have all had an issue. The Active (Not the limited) has been a god case, but the angles don't line up and ths is the 2nd one where the Seidio's awesome rubberized coating is wearing off and I have bald spots on the case. 1st one happened after 4 days and this one took 3 weeks.
It seems that I can't buy anything without having some sort of problem, the first active limited case I took out of the box and one corner was missing the rubber soft touch coating. The second is starting and called again and it looks just like my first one I got. I'm starting to get flash backs to broken off tabs for the pre.
I am having similar problems. I had to have 3 Innocase II surface till I got one that sort of worked. I don't like it so I have been using the Body Glove that I got from Sprint, which I thought was ok, but tonight the the part around the volume button all of a sudden cracked. So now I am forced to use the Innocase II Surface until they release the Otterbox Commuter series. I hope, at least the Seidio will protect and not ruin my phone until the Otterbox comes out.
Yeah I submitted and RMA request yesterday and I'm just going to sell it on Ebay when I get the replacement. I'm done with Seidio, I'll just use my Case-Mate Barely There until the Oterbox Defender comes out.
I sent Otterbox a e-mail and asked when it was coming out? Short answer ..They dont give any time frame for this.
I am curious about how easily the otterboxes can be taken off as right now I am debating getting extra batteries and just switching out between them. Anybody have experience with them that can tell me if they think the otterbox would make this too difficult to accomplish? If I get an otterbox it would be the defender series...
I sure can tell you first hand that the one Body Glove full case (2 piece) sold on here was a major PITA to remove when I decided to return it! Almost had to rip it apart to remove it. Not good if you ever have to remove the battery for any reason.
I know, right? I'm getting paranoid about my phone getting damaged. not so much the screen but that beautiful camera lens since I usually set my phone diwn on the back side... so far I've done good about only setting it down on soft surfaces but I would rather not risk it if I didn't have to.
if you're tired of waiting - get the Seidio Active X Exoskeleton Limited Edition from Amazon.com. i have it and i love the case. it appears comparable to my friend's Otterbox rubber polymer case for his iPhone.

looking at the pictures youll notice notes,judging for the pics there those cases dont hold up to well when dropped
Notes?
I'm sure the Commuter is just as good if not better than the:
- Seidio Active
- Case Mate Tough Case
- Seidio Rugged
- Ballistic

He was talking about the notes here: Amazon.com: Seidio Innocase Active Case for HTC EVO 4G - Limited Edition: Cell Phones & Service
I have Seidio, its ok... gonna go to Otterbox as I have one on my blackberry 8330 and I know port covers are important FTW
Sadly so far no dock will accomodate the phone being in a case, well my blackberry didn't have a dock, I didn't need one in a dock because I could just pull it out of my holster while driving so I liked that... my EVO isn't so easy to do that.

I bought the htc silicon skin from the sprint store and after a month I have already worn off the outer rubber layer on the sides, from sliding it in and out of my front pocket.
They have addressed a few design flaws of the others, covered ports and large buttons. One thing I don't like about the commuter is the bottom corners aren't covered with the plastic, just the rubber. Hopefully the final version will change in those spots, but I doubt it.
I still think it is the best design. Good products take time to perfect and it's clear otterbox put a lot of r&d into these cases.
