I will be happy to provide a review once I have the case in hand and have test driven it. I expect it to be bulky and I, too, have concerns about pocketability as I've never been a holster guy (and this holster looks beefy). Although, I have never been a case guy either, nor a smart phone guy, until the DX came out (purchased on release day ).
Having two, sort of separate cases helped my decision to purchase, but maybe not as much as its availability and finally, after staring at it for so long, and then flipping back to the Defender, I actually thought the Rugged was more aesthetically pleasing in a "now I can throw my phone out of the car window" sort of way. From what I have researched, the bulk comes in the form of the silicon case that goes over the Surface. I have read that silicon cases are kind of sticky and, not only stick to your pocket, but collect lint as well. However, take a look at the online photos (seidioonline.com) and notice that there is an exo-skeletal-like piece that snaps over the silicon. This is a hard plastic material and it covers quite a bit of the back so most of the silicon is covered up. I am thinking this will definitely help... that is if the damn thing actually fits in a pocket! Well, we'll see. I went with Fedex 2day, ordered late Friday, so I guess I'll see it Tuesday? Wednesday?
I will definitely post my review asap. I have been hating the case-wait so anything I can do to help.
