ZAGG InvisibleSHIELD for 2G iPod touch reviewed

FGAPIPTOUCH2FB 20081025 110610 ZAGG InvisibleSHIELD for 2G iPod touch reviewedI have always protected (hidden?) the beauty of the iPod’s industrial design behind bulky silicone or leather cases, but with the introduction of the touch screens on the iPhone and iPod touch, there is only so much bulk you can add without getting in the function. So, how do you protect it?

ZAGG offers a solution in the form of its InvisibleSHIELD product line for iPods and MacBook notebooks. Its a thin, light weight adhesive film that protects your tech against scratches and minor dents. How effective is it? I take the ZAGG InvisibleSHIELD for 2G iPod touch in my review.

MacCase Jacket for 17

72228020 03ccb6f92f m MacCase Jacket for 17First of all, I have to tell you that I’m a major case junkie, when
it comes to carrying around laptops. I’m sure there was a time when I changed
my laptop bag on a monthly basis. I think I’ve settled down a bit since then
(I only have 4 right now). Probably because carrying around a PowerBook
17″ brings
a special set of problems, thanks to it being a LOUS – Laptop Of Unusual
Size
.

But what about those times when you’re just running out to the bookstore,
or to see a client, or just don’t need to carry those other 20 pounds of gear?
That’s where the sleeve- style case comes in. The problem with these neoprene
or leather cases is there just isn’t room for the minimum stuff I need to carry
– at least not without bulking out the case past it’s design parameters. So
what to do? For the last couple months I’ve been using the MacCase Jacket and putting it through my demanding
tests.
