This product worked great for the first couple of months I had it. I dropped it, stuffed it in my purse near my car keys, and nary a scratch. However, I use the battery/USB slots a lot, and neither has an opening where you can access them, so I would take the whole cover off every time I wanted to re-charge my battery or upload pictures. By month 3 of this abuse, it completely tore in half. So if you don't use the camera often and don't need to re-charge a lot, or if you're willing to modify the silicone case to your needs, go for it. I'm considering getting another one myself, but will definitely take an Exacto knife to it this time around.

I almost didn't buy this product based on other reviews but boy am I glad I did. However, I am appreciative of the other reviews as it did forewarn me about the difficulty to scroll the wheel when the cover is on - which is true. However, it doesn't keep you from using the camera - particularly when you consider how infrequently you probably change those settings per use. Also, I found the toggle 'mouse' and other power buttons SUPER easy to use with the skin on. All and all, I give this little cover a 4.5 stars. Well worth the price. My only other suggestion has nothing to do with this product. I suggest buying a PDA ("palm piolot" or i-pod) type clear digital screen protector and cut it to fit the camera display and apply it to protect the screen.
