This case is good if you're looking for protection from light dings and scrapes against a wall. It's not for heavy duty mis-haps like knocking your phone clean off your desk (althought the friction of the case will help reduce the likelihood of that happening.
If you're planning on using this case with the Palm cradle/charger you may be disappointed. I specifically chose this case over the Speck SkinTight w/Holster because I was told (by who ever answers the phones for TreoCentral) that I could leave the skin on and place the device in the cradle. Now I'm stuck needing to remove the skin everytime I want to charge my phone.
Despite this let down I do think it's an okay case, again for "light" protection.

Worst slim case I've used
User: PJ Tunder, Mar 24, 2007
This is the worst slim case. It started out OK but then tended to get stretched with each time I had to pull it off to reset. I don't reset everyday but sometimes it's just needed. The case now hangs loosely off the bottom of my 700 making it ridiculously hard to type. Because of the looseness, it slides around and the form fit over the top of the navigation buttons is lost. I've switched to the boxwave case (not sold here) nad it's 10x better!

Does not Hold Shape
User: Uncle Keg, May 12, 2007
Pros:
Out of the box it fits great
Cons:
...2 weeks later and its a stretched out dust gatherer
My Pros and cons say it all. The executive grey did look surprisingly cool on my sprint 700p. I had a frosty clear thicker type I used on my 650 for two years without a problem. The Smartphone Experts UltraSlim SkinCase seems to also be a dirt magnet compared to my older case. I recommend going elsewhere.

Not a good investment
User: Gregg Kapuscinski, May 31, 2007
Pros:
A great case for about a week
Cons:
Stretches out of shape very quickly and becomes unusable
This case is too thin to hold its shape, and stretches to the point of being unusable very quickly.
SmartphoneExperts previously made a similar case of a thicker material which was fantastic. I have owned both cases, and still use the thicker one since it keeps its shape. I wanted to order a thicker one for my roommate to replace his SE UltraSlim case which has stretched beyond usefulness, but the thicker model doesn't seem to be offered anymore.
I can't understand why they would discontinue the case that works and is usable, but continue making this lesser case that is a piece of garbage (literally) after a couple of weeks of use. Don't waste your money on this one.
