Still waiting on the Surface case/holster combo myself. Fell in love with the one from my Thunderbolt, and just...I can't see switching. I am also one of those people who like having it on my hip, and on the rare times I have to put it in my pocket, I hate the stickiness that some of them have to them, pulling lint and everything with it. That was why I hated my OB Defender before, was just because it attracted so much dust and things. Yeah, my phone was protected, but it lost so much of the beauty of the phones because of that. I'm not THAT hard on them. I just like a good carrying solution.
I have been torn on the Active though...it does look ok.
