Feeling like my 9930 may be my last BB for awhile, I decided to slap on Otterbox's Defender.
No doubt I've lost the beauty and slimness of the naked Bold design. But, combined with a screen protector I'm confident my Bold will be in "like new" condition when it's time to replace it.
In fact, I've found the added bulk to be a plus for my large hands. Also, the earpiece and speakerphone appear to be louder. Not having to worry about drops, scratches, and dirt, make me feel like I can ride this Bold until the "wheels fall off."
If you're concerned about RIM's future, I suggest you protect it with a Defender and make it last as long as you possibly can.
I have a 9900 as well, but went with the otterbox commuter. I agree, it was hard to cover the naked beauty of the 9900 which is why I went with the less revealing option.
Blackberry Hard Shell case by Blackberry is my defender. It is so good it almost looks like the Bold 9900 has no case, partially due to the Bold's slim design, but also how well designed this case is.
I have the Otterbox Defender for my Droid Razr and I like it. Good experiences with Otterbox. I would recommend getting the Zagg complete coverage protectors to put on first then the Otterbox since the inside might scuff the device just a tad.

Ah Man. When your title said "Defended your 9930", I thought there was going to be a round by round description of a battle royal.
Almost turned off my TV.
I was going to ask where to send the flowers. Damn.
