I loved contour showcase i had for my 30gb video ipod. After getting a 80gb Classic i bought the showcase for it and I do not like it. You have to force the case to close and pry it off the ipod to take it out.

I had a Showcase for my 3G & quite liked it. Waited for one for my 160gb and just got it today. No prying or forcing with this one. Nice fit and finish.

Hey, this is mike from Contour. k3bikerider you purchased an iPod video version of the Showcase which does not fit the Classic iPods correctly. We have released iPod Classic specific versions that fit the iPods perfectly. Please shoot me an email at .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) and I will take care of the issue.
Thanks!

Are you able to place the ipod in the Apple docking station with the iSee Classic still on, or does it have to be removed?
Thanks!
