Perfect fit for iPod Photo 30GB [Posted on 2005-07-03]
Put it on my new iPod photo 30GB and it fits prefectly. Since 60GB or 40GB is a lot thicker so don't even try. Have not tried on the 20GB iPod but it should fit fine if not a little too large, since the 20GB is a hair thinner than the 30GB iPod Photo. The price is great too.

A case that actually works well [Posted on 2005-07-16]
For those whom this may concern, this case also fits the iPod 30GB Photo. The case isn't as tight as people describe it but it fits perfectly. This case doesn't make the ipod much thicker. It barely adds any weight on in fact.

The plastic that it's made of is great. It is definately scratch resistant; it's so strong that you could use a pocket knife and scratch the back and your ipod won't even be harmed. When you put the case into jean pockets, it tends to stick in there so taking it out will inside-out your pockets (I hope that made sense). This case will not slid off a dashboard either (although I wouldn't recommend it). Although the packaging says that it's shock absorbant, I don't recommend dropping your iPod.

For a screen protector and wheel protector, I recommend that you cut out a piece of paper protecter and slip that into the case. The hard plastic that the cases come in will also work but after you cut it out, you'll have to use sandpaper to sand it smooth so it doesn't scratch you iPod once you put it in.

After you have the plastic in the case, you're ipod will be completely protected. The only thing i don't like is the top is too wide open and dust tends to get in from the top. The bottom of the case is perfect; it closes completely so the case also acts as a dock protector.

I have an iPod 20 GB also, and this fits that as well. As for the 40GB iPods, I wouldn't recommend it. My friends who have the 40GB iPod tell me that it doesn't not fit. Some have been able to JAM the ipod into the case but that cannot be good for it.

Taking an iPod (20/30GB) out of the case is very easy and smooth. It will not scratch the ipod at all when you put it in or take it out.

For those people who sync thousands of songs at a time, you should take your iPod out of the case because the harddrive gets hot and the skin is only making it hotter... hot = bad.

Overall, this case is wonderful. I wouldn't recommend anything as this price is perfect COMPARED TO OTHER CASES. Honestly speaking, I think that these cases took less than 25 cent to make in a factory and I believe that the price is outrageous. Like I said however, COMPARED TO OTHER CASES' PRICES, this is actually pretty good.

Pros:
+ Long lasting material
+ Cheaper than other cases
+ Scratch resistant
+ Doesn't scratch iPod when removing/putting on
+ You can dock/charge/sync iPod without removing case

Cons:
- You have to make your own screen/wheel protection
- The case's top is a little too large and allows dust to enter
- Doesn't have holes in the back to let the iPod "breathe"

LATE SHIPPING [Posted on 2005-09-14]
I ordered this item in July and they delayed my order 3 times. I finally decided to cancel because I did not get my item when I needed it anyways. By the time they got delaying my order (that again was placed in mid-July) I was going to get it between September 30-October 4th. And that is if they did not delay it again. It sounds like a great deal though, I hope other customers get to have it. What would have been courtious of the company is if they had at least apologized or said something themselves! Amazon sent the apology. I did not hear at all from the company. Major thumbs down, and I am a person that has never complained about a company mistake. This was almost just rude.

Good Protection [Posted on 2007-01-15]
The I-Pod skins are fairly difficult to get on. Once it is on the skin does provide good protection.
