Speck Armband

Does anyone know what the skin looks like that is included with the Speck Armband found here:
http://www.speckproducts.com/nano-armband.html
If it's clear, I might go with that one b/c it will show off my colorware painted nano the best.

i think you are mistaken. from what i believe, the armband + skin means that the armband will hold an ipod that has the skin already on it. The armband without the skin will only hold the bare ipod.

i do not believe the armband + skin comes with a skin, or else everyone would be jumping on that one. re-read the description and you might get what im saying.

I emailed them today asking about it

I think the photo is just the armband and they haven't put one up yet with both

txt from the site says
"SkinTight armband for nano features a soft comfort fit adjustable strap and cord clips to keep you from getting tangled up in cords. Get ARMBAND + SKIN to keep your nano protected while you workout. Get ARMBAND ONLY for just the armband! Please note the 'armband only' is designed for just the nano alone and will not work with any skin. The 'armband + skin' is desigend for use with a skin and will not fit without skin"

USAGE:

For Armband + Skin: Insert iPod nano into skin case thru scroll wheel hole. Insert iPod + Skin into armband and strap it on!

For Armband only: Insert iPod nano into armband- strap it on!

$34.95 armband + skin
$29.95 armband only

Is your colourware scratch proof?

I emailed them the other day too, they haven't responded yet.

My colorwared nano should arrive on Friday. I think it is highly-scratch resistant...that's why I'm tempeted to just get the plain armband. But I'd like to protect it from sweat and bumping it, not just scratches.

do they coat the screen with anything? is it that left as original?
as the screen scratches easily.

am thinking of doing it myself, even though I have the Powersupport film on front and back

They put a clear coat on the the entire front i think. I'll take pics once it arrives and let you know.

to bad they don't offer just a clear coat finish. but that's off-topic.

Nano Armband ($29.95 for Armband; $34.95 for Armband and Skin) - Features a soft comfort fit adjustable strap and earphone cord clips. Available in clear only with black strap.

From here: http://ilounge.com/index.php/news/comments/speck-rolls-out-new-ipod-nano-accessory-lineup/

Leads me to believe that a skin actually is included in the purchase of armband and skin, not that it just fits with a skin.

Have you heard yet whether you need to buy the Nano SkinTight separately then for the Speck armband?
