Best Iskin For Mini?
[667 byte] By [Goose101] at [2007-11-10 6:42:51] 
Right now i have a pleather case from Krussel that i bought off ebay, i really like it but i want some thing that protects the screen more and is a little tighter fit. i have been looking on iskin.com but i wanted a review from someone who owns an iskin. Do they protect good against drops, dirt, does it protect the screen good etc? Also, i really like the (i think) arctic white one that glows aqua blue. Would this look good on my silver mini? Does the colour look good in general?? One more, is there any other place i can get this glow in the dark one other then iskin.com, cause its a little expensive oredering from there?? Anyways thanks for the response.....

I have an iSkin mini, but I just got it yesterday so I can't give you any long term things. I can only answer a couple of your questions. Regarding the drops, well, I haven't dropped it yet with the iSkin on so I don't know, and I'm not about to test it either ;). I have a silver mini with an artic white iSkin. Looks awesome in my opinion. The screen protector does its job just fine. I got mine for $24.99USD +8.25% tax (I'm in California). It was at a local store. I'll include links to pics of my own mini with the iSkin on. If you haven't already read the review on this site, that would be a good read too.My Pics:

I'm currently using a iSkin mini and I love it. My previous skin was a Felicidad case (or something similar) and I'm so happy that I get rid of it. I highly recommend the iSkin mini. It really works when you drop your mini on a marble floor (like I did).I have the arctic white one with silver mini and it looks good.

Hey! I have two iSkin Minis and I think the iSkin is a great case. My iSkins have saved my iPod atleast three times so I'd definitely say that it protects against drops well. Lint and dust do get onto them however, my Arctic one (the non-glowing clear skin) doesn't show any crap on it. As for the screen protector, it does protect well but I've heard about people who have had their iSkin come with a broken screen protector due to bad packaging so check on that before you buy it. The ghost color is more of a white then a clear, like the Arctic. The glow feature is very nice and works well and since you have a silver mini and aren't worried about seeing the color through the iSkin, I think the Ghost would be a good pick. The only place besides online retailers is the Apple store (where I got one of my iSkins). Be sure to call in to make sure they have your color, though. I hope I've helped, and if you have any further questions please let me know!minime at 2007-11-15 15:51:10 >

Hey guys thanks for all the reply's, im still not sure of what im gonna do yet in regarding a case. However, if i get one it will most definetley be the iskin, and most likely the arctic, i kind of like the clear now and like the fact very littel dust shows up on it. However, MINIME, could you please paste some pictures of your iskins, not jsut the arctic one, i would like to see the otehr one too! Also, one more question, i live in Canada, so im not aware of any Apple stores near by, but if i dont get an iskin, i want at least a screen protector. So do you guys know where i can get a screen protector without needing the case to support it?Thanks so much for the responses (sp!!??)

Hi,
I live in Canada and bought a skin at Future Shop.. its not an iSkin, its from Speck Products (http://www.speckproducts.com/mini-skin-clear.html), I have the silver mini so I got a clear skin & I think it looks quite similar to the other pics posted.
Also I was looking around on eBay one day and found a guy who sells iShades for 2$ usd. I bought 2 from him and 2 from allaboutheaccessories.com and they're the same thing not to mention cheaper than iSkin.com. (eBay guy also combined shipping for a few things for me). Of course with eBay you can't guarantee things will always go smooth but if you want his name or a link to his acution pm me and i'll get it for you. :)
