The iPod too small to need a case, now has a case

SUMAJINSHUFFLE3RDGENCASESILICONE 20090410 085851 The iPod too small to need a case, now has a case

There’s far from anything revolutionary about silicon iPod cases anymore. This one only merits comment because it’s for the new iPod shuffle: a device so small, it doesn’t need a case. The iPod shuffle is barely noticeable at all and has only one port and one switch to defend, so the Sumajin 3rd Gen iPod Shuffle Silicone Case seems a bit much.

For USD$14, you get 2 flip-top sleeves to prevent your shuffle from getting scratched or dinged. The cases come in 6 colors plus “glow in the dark” which may be the most useful one–it might help you find your shuffle if you lose it!

Look at the pretties! iSkin launches Vibes and Duo for 4G iPod nano

I am usually loath to announce new iPod cases, but these ones look uniquely cool so I had to post a link. iSkin today introduced the iSkin Vibes and Duo, two new cases for the iPod nano 4G.

The iSkin Duo for iPod nano 4G likes like another soft silicone wrapper with a scratch-resistant clear screen protector, a film to protect the click wheal, and an attachable docking port insert. Nothing exciting here. It’s available in three bundles (Chill, Cruise and Groove) each containing three skins and sells for USD$34.99. I’m sorry, that’s the usual yawn.

What I’m more excited about are the iSkin Vibes. They feature a soft and flexible glass-like finish reflecting one of seven cool patterns that allows the iPod nano 4G’s vibrant color to shine through. It offers the same protection (body, screen, click-wheel, docking port) as the other case but looks much cooler. The iSkin Vibes is offered in seven choices: Croc, Enchanted, Ivy, Orbitz, Tao, Argyle, and Camouflage, and sells for USD$24.99.

It’s cheaper and it looks better!!

There are also Duos and Vibes for iPod touch, but they’re not as cool as the Vibes for nano.

Digital Lifestyle Outfitters has unveiled its newest case for the iPod nano–the HybridShell.

Its silicone backing provides a no-slip finish, while the clear plastic front allows the nano color and personality to shine through.
