I was going to grab one of these for my laptop awhile ago, they had a really nice skin for that. I didnt though, it was $30.
But this looks great. I currently have the black snap on case but its a pain in the neck to take off for battery pulls. I wouldnt mind buying some of these skins later on just to have something unique on my Droid. Still, Id like to see how they look in person.

If you just do a Google search on Gelaskins Reviews, you'll find that on other devices they do look that perfect! Assume they would for Droid as well.
But agree that I would love to see an actual photo of a few on some Droids. I wasn't able to find any when I searched this morning.

And I got a reply about the Front skin covering the buttons below the display screen:
Hi (redacted)!
Thank you for your interest in GelaSkins! Our skins do cover the buttons, but this doesn't affect the sensitivity at all. Thanks again!
Kind Regards,

hmmm didn't see that.
Yeah these images don't really help how it would look on the phone. If someone orders one of these please put up a pic of it.
That was kind of a crappy response. They cover up the buttons, but is the piece that does thin enough to show the light of the buttons? I don't think I would remember which button was which if I couldn't see them!
I really like these and are considering a purchase, but this covering up the buttons may make me change my mind. I guess that piece could be left off, but I think it would kill the look....

I wanna see it on a phone, and if I can use my Exact-O to customize the parts it covers

Yeah, you wouldn't be able to see the buttons. That was my thought as well.
But as Martin here on the forums said, an exacto knife might fix that problem.
Like everyone else here, I am dying to see an actual review of these with photos!
I had posted a few more questions to their CS (about sensors being covered and about wallpapers for Droid not being sized for easy download). In that query I also gave them a link here and let them know that there seems to be a lot of interest but that we also have a lot of questions and he may just want to answer q's right here in the thread. But I'll post whatever response I get to the other q's when I receive it.

Thanks JessiesGirl. Keep us posted with any answers. I was gonna e-mail too but no sense in bombarding the site with e-mails when we all have the same questions
The wallpaper combining with the skin is genius. The skins are a little loud for my liking though. Does anyone actually use one? pics plz?
I'd like to know how thick it is too.
I don't really like how they cover up the four soft keys at the bottom though. I'm sure they still work but I wouldn't enjoy guessing where each one is. I could get used to it though.
$15 to make your own. I'm liking this.

I might try ordering one just for the rear cover and not mess with the front face. I like the minimalist flat black look of the screen as it is anyways. I'm pretty sure a friend of mine had one of these on the front of an old-school ipod (I recognize the art) and it looked great.

This would be great if it fits over the Seidio Case. Can anyone confirm this? It would definatly add some grip to the phone.
This is something I tried out when the Instinct came out. I ordered one for it, but I took it back and got the iphone 3G, so I never had a chance to use it. I also forgot to send it back for a refund too, lol. It seems like it's just a picture on a sticker you put on your phone and it's supposed to last a few months before it wears out.
It's nothing like invisible skin and it will only protect your phone from minor stuff, nothing major. That's what I get the feeling by looking and feeling on it. It will wear out in a few months, so you'll have to replace it. I might order one later, if I like anything i see. I know I can customize one too, but who knows.
Oh this is where I got mine the first time when the Instinct came out. I'm guessing they're both using the same technology.
