Ballistics case VS Regular case

Just wanted to get some peoples feed back on this. I have been away from Sprint for a couple years and now I am coming back. I am buying the Samsung Galaxy S II 4g Touch. I am looking at cases and I see some that have a belt clip, and then I see this ballistics case.

I drive an 18 Wheeler and its really nice to be able to clip the phone on my belt while I am doing deliveries. I deliver Kitchen Cabinets to Job sites so I definitely need the case. My question is this. Is the ballistics case worth it that much to sacrifice the belt clip option or would a belt clip case be suffice enough to protect the phone in case it drops or gets knocked off my belt by a cabinet?

If I were doing heavy duty work like that-
Id get the Otterbox !

The Ballastics cases are nice but not like Otterbox

The Epic Touch doesnt break that easy anyway.
It`s a pretty durable phone!

I would buy an otterbox, i have for all my other phones. But the otterbox corporation decided not to make one for the epic touch.

Oh I never looked into that.
Although, If it were me I would buy the Ballistics case then.

Good Luck !

Trident makes some cases similar to otterbox models. I bought one for my NS4G, but it was just too thick for me. For your purpose it may be just right. Give them a look see.
