I have had my iPhone in a skin case for a while now, but one problem with it is that it blocks the sensor on the front of the phone, so the screen doesn't turn off when I bring it to my ear. I have been hearing some good things about the iSkin Revo, but I have not heard anything about whether or not this case has the same problem. Any owners have some feedback?

Got a skin case from www.ifrogz.com

Comes with screen film and does not block the sensors

belt clip

But there is no belt clip. I would buy three of these cases (in different color schemes) but there is no clip for the belt. They thought of everything but that....disappointing.

I acknowledge your opinion, but, they could have atleast given the end user the option of belt clip or no belt clip. Much like one of the leather holsters they have out now (belkin perhaps) that has a screw on / off belt clip.

Question to those who have them:

Does the Revo gather dust easily, like most other silicon skins/case?

Thanks

Adding the possibility for a clip on a rubber case would make for a large amount of bulk, exactly what I for one do not want. As it is, the phone fits perfectly in the side pocket of my carpenter jeans :) Can't stand it clipped on, in the front or back pockets.
