Griffin Technology has introduced its first accessories for the new fourth-generation iPod touch and sixth-generation iPod nano announced earlier this week. The Wristlet for iPod nano ($20) is a new one-piece silicone case and wrist strap design that wraps completely around the iPod nano, including protection for the volume controls and hold switch. The FormFit for iPod touch ($25) is a new reinforced silicone jacket design for the fourth-generation iPod touch, framed with a one-piece nylon retaining ring that stretches and provides structure for the silicone back, providing a thin, durable case. Available in three color patterns, the FormFit provides full access to the display, camera, controls headphone jack and Dock Connector and also includes a microstand to hold the iPod touch in its case for video viewing or FaceTime calls. Griffin has also released fourth-generation iPod touch versions of its classic line of cases, including the gaming-oriented FlexGrip Action for iPod touch ($25), the stylish hard-shell Outfit Ice for iPod touch ($30), the synthetic carbon fibre-look Elan Form Graphite for iPod touch ($35) and the smoked TPU Motif Gloss for iPod touch ($20). The new cases can be pre-ordered from Griffin’s web site and are expected to be available at major retailers in the coming weeks.
