Hmm, these don’t look bad at all. Are you planning to review these cases in the near-future, iLounge?

Just got a couple in the mail today. A clear one for a black iPod video, and a red one for my 2G Project Red Nano (haven’t put it on yet, but seems pretty cool). They are a little tricky to get on, but once you do, not too bad.
Video was still pretty clear on the screen. I little off, but that’s to be expected from a case.
They seem to fit like a glove without adding any bulk like most cases do. I give them about a “B” simply because they are no frills, and don’t come with any accessories like the iSkin Duos do.

I just bought one online for my Ipod Classic. Two days after buying it they sent me an email saying that they have found a new material that make the case better and more durable. They also say it will not make it thicker but because it is a harder material, it will fit ipods better. Because of this they will wait until next week to ship my order so i can get a new/better case. So far customer service has been very helpful and quick. Im psyched for my case
