I've been using the same thing. The bottom stays on very well. The top stays on well for the first several weeks, then it comes on and off very easily, and I have noticed a few very small nicks in the paint, but nothing that makes me worried. It's still the best protector I've found.

@Nexus 7: can you explain more about your technique for adding insulation tape. What do you mean by insulation tape? Any particular brand you are using? And are you concerned that this tape may peel off paint? Thanks!

The rubberized hard cases work great. The insides aren't rubberized of course, and there was a report a while ago that they scratched someone's phone. So I took mine off after 3+ months of use to check. Nothing, except for a little bit of lint. As long as you make sure that the top is on securely (I used 2 layer thick strips of insulation tape as shims), nothing is going to protect any better. The price you pay is 1 mm less at the top of the keyboard.
