My first post here guys, just wanted to do a short review of the iSee-20 I recieved today for my 4G, since I didn't see any existing reviews. I'm sure everyone is anxious to know what it looks like outside of the contour website.

It's a fairly simple design and as of right now it looks to be quite a nice case. Fulfills everything I need it to do and doesn't hide the beauty of the iPod. The plastic is actually a lot thicker than I expected, but I can live with this as it'll probably protect the iPod better. Bulk and weight isn't significantly increased, but if you liked the ultra-slim profile of the 4G 20GB, you'll have to find a way to live with this. I would say it makes it about as thick as a 4G 40GB.

Fit and finish are fantastic, but the plastic will probably get scratched as time goes on. The bottom door for the firewire port works well and open and closes with a *snap*. The plastic element at the bottom that prevents the iPod from falling out snaps onto the sides of the plastic using tabs. It seems pretty secure. The top is slightly smaller than the iPod as to prevent the iPod from falling out. The iPod doesn't seem to fit exactly snug when it's first put in without the bottom latch, but as soon as it's installed it's completely snug and doesn't move at all.

The belt clip works well and is easy to use (snaps onto the side).

Overall I'm impressed with the functionality and simplicity of this case. And one cannot argue given the price, cheaper than most silicone skins, and it doesn't hide the iPod in any way. How does it feel in your hand? Before the iPod felt very fragile and thin...I set it down very lightly and always grasped it like it was going to drop. Now, I can hold it any way I want not fearing damage, scratches, or fingerprints. The added thickness with the case on makes it feel very "brick-like" and invincible.

This one is definitely a keeper.
