Not sure what you mean, my N900 commuter series Otterbox isn't silicon.
The internal lining is....

I don't know if anyone has mentioned it but the case from Nokia when it first came out is pretty nice. I ordered it from Amazon.de when I first got the phone a year ago, and it has been great. Kind of sucks trying to get the phone out fast, but it's a nice fit.

yeah has been mentioned, not bad, but as you say can be a bit fiddly.

Otterbox is great for protection but is a little tough on your face if you use the phone as a phone without a headset. There is a slightly sharpend ridge on the raised front portion which the flesh of your face will grow to hate. Easy enough to use a headset instead.
The topcover forces larger fingers down when trying to press the keys in the top row of the keyboard. It does cause you to make more typos at first until you learn to adjust to it.
The silicone inside of the case does a tremendous job of preventing scratches and wear as well as absorbing impacts from drops.

Does have it's flaws but nothing that can't be tweaked or grown accustomed to.
Definitely the best -all things considered- around IMO....

Jalyst - Even with my few complaints the Otterbox is still on my N900 and will continue to be thanks to the tremendous protection it offers.

I ordered 2 cases for testing:
bugatti "inMotion" Silverline for N900
http://www.amazon.de/bugatti-inMotio...7326450&sr=1-1
which is a soft case
and
bugatti Travel One Size for N900
http://www.amazon.de/bugatti-Travel-...7326420&sr=8-1
which is a hardcase.

So far I like the hardcase bugatti Travel One Size better.
At first I had the impression that it closes a bit hard, but this
was only a matter of using it a bit more.
There are ~5mm between N900 and the zipper so I cannot
say that it is too small.
It is also a good hard case if you do some sports were
N900 needs to be protected.
