Pros: The latest iteration of the unique and popular Showcase series, combining the best parts of clear hard plastic and rubber cases into a single design. Front and rear panels show off the iPod inside, while rubber edges protect it against accidental drops. Port holes are compatible with oversized headphones and Dock Connector cables. Includes detachable belt clip, separate versions for 30GB and 60GB iPods.
Cons: No Click Wheel protection, generous hole sizes expose a bit more of the iPod’s top and bottom than other top cases. Only one color combination (black and clear) available.
A Note From the Editors of iLounge: Though all products and services reviewed by iLounge are "final," many companies now make changes to their offerings after publication of our reviews, which may or may not be reflected above. This iLounge article provides more information on this practice, known as revving.
