Ugly, and unelegant solution [Posted on 2008-01-22] I bought this for my 160 GB iPod Classic, opened the box, took one look a the construction and solution, and re-packaged it to return. Horribly shoddy. To attach the armbelt, you have to remove the iPod as there's no slack in the through-straps with the iPod in the case. Not impressed. Go for something else.
decent enough [Posted on 2008-02-09] this comes with an interchangeable belt attachment and armband - both of which are fairly sturdy. the case is pretty ugly compared to some of those silicon covers, but you do get an armband with this one. the construction doesn't seem to be top-notch, as there is fraying of material around the opening for the touch-pad. it doesn't appear that this will eventually lead to the case falling apart, but it just doesn't look as sleek as an ipod, which is one of the reasons you bought an ipod, right?
another drawback is the screen: it's clear plastic, but it's really cheap clear plastic. the density of the plastic isn't completely uniform, so it's more opaque in areas -- while barely noticeable, it still irritated me at first, but i eventually got over it. decent product especially if you like to be active while listening to your jams.
DLO Jacket [Posted on 2008-03-10] Works as expected. Provides good protection for the iPod while allowing access to clickwheel and video/audio port. Access to the dock connector is sometimes a little cumbersome - need to make sure connection is secure. I have not used the belt clip - it looks a little fragile to support an expensive iPod Classic. The armband works great.
May work, but not for me.... [Posted on 2008-03-25] I was thrilled to have found this case that includes the armband and the belt clip as well as protection for the iPod. Having had it for a day the thrill is gone; uncomfortable, difficult to opperate while case is on, belt clip is huge and it separates the iPod about an inch from you. It makes you look funny. Nevertheless, I may have considered keeping it if it weren't because of the useless piece of rubber at the bottom which keeps me from using my iPod in my car dock with the case on. Very dissapointed. Go for something else.
Basic, Simple, & Light [Posted on 2008-07-22] I don't know what other people were looking for in an Ipod case, but I am of the opinion that simpler is better.
This little case was just what I was looking for in a lightweight and durable armband Ipod holder. I am a big jogger and hiker and I was looking for something that I could strap on and forget about. This little case gets the job done.
It is extremely lightweight, and the adjustable arm strap can fit huge arms as well as smaller arms. When comparing it to the more "bulky" armbands I have used in the past I notice the armband doesn't get as HOT (or sweaty) as other arm bands.
In my opinion its a great small and inexpensive option to the more expensive brands out there. While I don't suppose it would stand up to any "torture tests" (i.e., don't expect it to protect your iPod from a 2 story fall) I would recommend it to anyone who needs a no fuss moderately priced protective sleeve, and highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a lightweight armband for running/working out.
