I have one of these guys. It’s pretty awesome.
Well, like I said before, I prefer leather, if not so much for aesthetics than for its shock absorbing properties. If I had to choose between aluminum and silicone/rubber, I’d pick the latter. I’ve never been a fan of aluminum cases.
You know, if I had to pick a plastic/rubber case, I think I’d definitely choose that one. I would still be concerned for the lack of protection on the front though. It’s overmoulded so it’s fine if it falls on a flat surface, but if it falls on something other than a flat surface, you could have a problem. Plus, it won’t go well in a pocket that contains other things that could scratch it. (A stick of gum, say…)
Oh, something else I should mention: Scottvests. Clothing of varying types and styles made just for carrying mobile electronics discretely, safely and stylishly. I haven’t bought one yet but I’m seriously thinking about picking up a couple of items in their catalogue, as they look pretty damn nice and are thoughtfully functional as well.
thanks for the suggestions!
Am i going to have to do something with my ipod since I have windows? or will it still work right out of the box? thanks
It works out of the box whether on Mac or Windows. Just plug it in, load up iTunes (if it isn’t already configured to load automatically when you dock the iPod) and start feeding it.
ok, im getting my ipod tomarrow. The problem is that I need it tomarrow night and Im gonna be gone all day. Will it hurt the battery in any way if I let it charge for 6 hours or more for its first charge?(does overcharging affect it?) pelase let me know asap. I cant wait to get it!
thanks for all your help. I really appreciate it.
