Looks like more Photoshop. Fluffy Cloud should be called Michelin Man or Dough Boy. The grass can be used to comb your dog or cat. The Black case is interesting.

Nano Grass FunSkin: Resembles something made famous by the French, only in green.
Nano Cloud FunSkin: The Michelin Tire Man of iPod covers.
Nano ToughSkin: A bicycle tire gone awry.
Price for a piece of flexible plastic: Astronomical.

RAD! I love the grass case and toughskin. I would never buy them, of course. Far too expensive and I like my nano naked (it’s too thin to ruin with a case!). Still very cool designs though.

I’ll wait for something more reasonably priced.

Well I think the See-Thru Three pack is resonably priced - and maintains the look of the nano. I’ll definately be getting one. May get a Nano skintight too, although as much as I like the look of the others, the price is getting to the prohibitive side…

I like Nano Connect and Protect. I like it that you can you use the case as a key chain.
