Best Cases (Manufactured for nano, not Homemade)

that is a pretty slick one. I was thinking about getting this one, over at iskin.com , until I saw the one you posted. Hmm, guess I need the nano first though!! :D

the Belkin cases do look nice, although a little bulky. i like this one most 'cause of the clip:

but, i don't like that the player would be right-side up. that would make the cord on the headphones almost too short (for me). the Folio case looks nice, as well, but again, a little bulky. do places like Best Buy generally carry these kinds of cases in-store?

I've ordered the Speck Toughskin --> http://www.speckproducts.com/nano-toughskin.html

it looks pretty cool for $25 you get 2 cases one lanyard design and one normal. screen cover, lanyard necklace, and a free pouch. What the heck kind of website name would be censored here?

Okay, why is that censored? Just type in "z cover" (no space; no quotes) in Google.

BTW, when anyone finds a place with the case d-bear pointed out, please alert me!

I photoshoped a white nano in it, to show why I thought it was too bad I didn't get black. Not as nice visually as black w/ black.

here;s the pic

I would buy it in a heartbeat if that keychain thing wasnt there. I'll just wait until someone else comes out with armor

I am waiting for the new Iskin case...
I have my Decal girl until then

yeah, i want the duo case from iskin. it has everything i want, a screen protector, click wheel protection, and clip, and the two colors look really cool. hopefully it comes out soon and they have good color combos.

Ive looked at most of the avaliable cases, and i think i'll hold out for either the apple nano tubes or the iskin nano duo.

probably whichever is released first.

I bought the Incase neoprene sleeve with my Nano. When it gets here, I'll post a review, but I have to say, black neoprene on a white Nano does look pretty cool.

I agree.

Take off the keychain and add a removable clip. That case would be perfect.

Personally I like these hard cases from Speck as it doesnt add too much bulk, at least from what I see so far. I be waiting for them to be released.

one thing; it doesn't protect the whole ipod...

I will get one of these two in the near future:

And finally, In a few months, it will get sent to colorware:

If dunhill ever makes a case for the nano, I will pu that on my wishlist. Other designer cases for the old school iPod (http://www.city-magazine.com/musthaves_31.html)

I guess its mostly a matter of what looks pleasing to you combined with your fashion sense. Some might argue against a green and pink combination, but if your a combine pink and green socks kind of person go for it. Most people will prefer a more subdued style. Anyone who uses their ipod with a tie would probably play it safe with a flat black.

I guess the same rules would apply for clothes that apply for the iPod (Should it match your belt?)

Flip through all the options it appears that there are two different pages of combinations). Save all the ones you think look nice in a folder. Then, go to that folder and flip through them. Compare any two at a time, saving your favorite of the two and deleting the other. After a while, you will be left with only a short list of ones you really like. Show all of those to your wife/girlfriend/forum members and let them give you advice. After doing something similar with colorwares website, I found that a few days later I elimiated all but two. I guess it just comes down to whether or not you feel comfortable with one over another.

I just got the Speck SkinTight and I must say the name doesn't reflect what it is. This thing adds so much bulk to the nano without even much protection if it falls on one of the corners (not sure if it needs it). This may be just a personal thing, but it takes away from what the nano has going for it - a great feel. I've ordered the iSkin duo which I should've done in the first place since I loved their case for my 3G R.I.P. Any one want to buy a barely used Speck SkinTight in black? Yep, I agree. Here's my review - http://forums.ilounge.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=125551. I've already ordered the invisibleshield and will switch to sticking it in my pocket instead of using a clip.

UPDATE: I just got my iSkin Duo and it's right on the money. Great protection of the ports on the bottom, doesn't add too much bulk, has a great feel to it. If you're in the market for a silicon case (vs. Leather, hard plastic etc.) then I highly recommend iSkin... The ONLY negatives I have for it: the silicon picks up lint (I've seen some other silicons advertised that are treated to avoid this); there is no protection for the hold slider at the top; and the inner layer's edges around the screen are not perfectly smooth which is only an aesthetic issue. All MINOR negatives.
