    Any ideas? I have the zeroshock case, although personally I feel it is a little overrated as the foam could be "squishier."

    Specifically, I guess I am looking for a Zeroshock ALTERNATIVE. And under $50!

    Granted that this is $60 and hence out of your price range, but the "Brain Cell" cases by Tom Bihn ( http://www.tombihn.com/page/001/PROD/300/TB0300) are great for protection. They have hard plastic on all sides and a foam sling to prevent damage from drops.
