For those that are interested in a good iPod protection, check this out:

The Invisible Shield

My friend has one of these on his iPod and it's simply amazing. It completely covers the whole iPod. I didn't even know it was there till he told me it was on. Watch the videos on the website to see how strong it is. It's removable and it's very inexpensive as well.

 

My sister has it on her nano and it's pretty cool too. Way better than the old shitty cases.

 

meh I'd stay with the hard clear shell,..best protection from stupidity.

 

The problem with the hard shell cases is that you can't dock them in a cradle without removing the case.

 

I have a silicone case for my nano. It works great. Best thing I bought. It's soft, protects the entire ipod, lets me dock it, & has some cushion for small impacts. It only adds a small increase in size also. Got it off Ebay for $12.

 

def agree with u...have the exact type of cover and works great, tight fit, buttom of case is 'open' in case you need to plug something larger than the normal cutout for the dock connector - and best of all, no scratches whatsoever since xmas

 

The problem that I notice with alot of the plastic, silicone, metal or hardshell cases is that most of them do not have protection for the screen or click wheel. The Invisible Shield completely covers the whole iPod.

P.S. I did find a clear shell case that covers the screen, but it still leaves the click wheel unprotected and still isn't dockable.

 

Same as invisibleshield for $20 less…

And RhinoSkin Hard case... no docking but can still use the cable

RhinoSkin is about as heavy as 5G 30gb

 

I'm using the Matias Armor for my Ipod. It's a hard case and when it is closed you cannot see the ipod at all. It has foam on the top and bottom. It has a hole for the docking, It has openings at the top also for the headphones etc. The best thing for me for in ther car though is if it bounces around it will be protected.

 

wow.. looks GREAT.. I think I'd might have to get one for my new nano coming..:-)

 

Just a warning watch your ipod in the summer. If you keep it in the car. Some people on the Ipod forums have mentioned the LCD getting ruined from the high heat

 

what if you drp your ipod?
