Maybe if they’d made it look like a bean bag chair from nice fabric materials…but right now it looks like the iPod is sitting on a small trash bag. Ughhh!

Looks like a poor attempt at shilling your product, Bob Hatfield.

In defense of the little guys we make, you will notice that we also incorporate a dock made by apple that is seamlessly integrated into the sack. The sacks will incorporate various lifestyle designs, unlike the “muffpod”.

FYI- there are 400000 other companys making ipod covers out there. Remember, there is always room for pepsi.

Did the price drop?
The webpage linked here is a bit confusing. Does it include the dock? Is there access to the ports?

I am more interested in whether there are complementing accessories available such as a bong and backlight posters?
