Does it cover the screen?

The connector opening does NOT look large enough for the connector?

Hmm..those look EXACTLY like the nano tubes I just got from iPodStreet here:
(http://www.ipodstreet.com/ipod-nano.htm)
I bought the pack of 5 and I received them yesterday. Looking at the high-res pics of these, they look exactly like the ones I got. Event the ridges and two dots on the back are the same.
The only issue I have is I cannot figure out how to attach the lanyard/wrist strap.

And, if these are the same, let me answer a couple questions here:
* There is no screen protector - I am using an iCondom (from eBay) to protect my screen
* The connector works fine with the skin on. The opening isn’t quite as wide as the white part of the connector, but the skin is thin enough where it doesn’t matter. I’ve had no issue with it. But, the skin does make it a bit difficult to work the hold switch as the skin is thicker then the switch and so you have to kind of dig inside the opening to toggle the switch.

I know they scratch easily, but why get a nano, especially a black one, if you’re going to hide the colors?

I wanted some kind of case mainly so I can wear it around my neck at the gym. I’m hoping to use it to replace my shuffle.
I also bought these for my wife. She wouldn’t even open her nano box until she had a case for it as she wants to just throw it in her purse and she has already dinged and scratched up her mini and doesn’t want the same to happen to her new nano.
