Comment: Provides good protection for iPod. A little hard to get in and out at first, but gets easier the more times you do it.

Summary: great protector, but read this first before purchasing
Comment: I'll keep this review short by not writing about how great this product is, since everyone else has already done that. Instead, I'll tell you what I don't like about it.

First of all, this ToughSkin case makes my nano look and feel bulkier, more than I feel it needs to. After all, If I wanted something bigger, I would have gotten the regular ipod and not the nano. The overall fit of the case is good but not great. My ToughSkin case has a slight bulge in the middle between the wheel and the screen.

A screen protector comes with the case and fits over the ipod screen. The screen protector doesn't feel secure, because it is a loose piece and is held in place by the elastic fit of the rubber ToughSkin. Having the screen protector on adds a little undesired bulk and allows for annoying dust to get trapped in between. Sort of like how trapped dust used to get inside the screens of older cell phones. I have gotten around this problem by simply not using the screen protector. Of course, now my screen is no longer protected.

Lastly, my ipod wheel is less accessible because the rubber around the wheel is too thick. The wheel feels like it sits in a depression surrounded by rubber, and because it is made of rubber, my finger doesn't glide around the wheel like it did before. Also, because the wheel sits low, I find myself sometimes using my fingernail to press selections. Unfortunately, as a result of this, I get to listen to songs that I didn't intend to play....Grrrrr!

All in all, I really don't regret this purchase because it does what I need it to do,....protect my ipod and provide a clip for mobility. I wrote this review so that others wouldn't come across 5 overall stars and assume that this product is perfect. This ToughSkin case is a good product and true to most of the reviews, but it is by no means without its flaws.

Summary: Keeps iPod very safe.
Comment: This case is excellent if you tend to be rough on your iPod. I run with mine and this case has protected it against dropping and moisture (both sweat and rain). It's a little bulkier than I had hoped, but that may be necessary to provide so much protection. I feel like you could do almost anything short of running over it with a car and it would be safe. The belt clip is handy for running, but when you remove the clip you still have the giant clip attachment thing sticking out. Another issue is that it is VERY difficult to get in/out of the case. I was hoping to switch my iPod between this case and my arm band, but it just takes way too much time/effort.

I highly reccomend this prodcut if you want your iPod completely protected and don't plan to remove it from the case or fit it into a tiny pocket.
