Even before we gave our sons iPod Videos for Christmas, I had read reviews and was concerned about scratching the screen and back of the unit. Since I also gave them clock radios with iPod docks built in, I wanted something to protect the units but wouldn't be a hassle for docking since a unit with a typical case won't fit into a dock. There are cases in all price ranges, but I had set $20 as the limit of what I thought a good case should cost. At first I tried the clear thin plastic overlays (Belkin makes these too and I also tried a much less expensive cover I got on eBay), but they always had some bubbles or eventually were falling off. And they offer no protection if the unit is dropped. I checked out all the various iPod video designs - slip-ins, flip-top cases, leather cases, rubber protective sleeves, etc. I bought one of the sleeve protectors for about $6 at Walmart, but using it was like trying to "put 10 pounds into a 5 pound bag" tight and way too difficult to take off. Then I came upon this Belkin case and the search was over. The clear front cover completely protects both the screen and controls while maintaining access to the jacks and onnectors. You can operate the spin control with the cover on and the case pops open and/or off easily for placing the unit back into a dock or in our case the clock radio. The case will hold the 60 or 80 GB iPods and comes with an extra pad to snugly hold a 30 GB unit as well. The case is rubberized so it should protect the unit nicely in the event of a drop or fall. If you try it, you'll love it. It's definitely worth the money to protect your$250 to $350 investment.

I would love this case-it's sleek, sturdy looking, with a nice, clear protective cover, well designed.But it DOESN"T fit the 80 gig ipod, as is clearly stated in the product description. Now I have the hassle of making a return. Too bad.If you have a smaller video ipod, I'd recommend the case.

I'm not sure they make this one anymore. I love the one I have. It provides considerable protection and the controls work fine through the unit. I am kind of partial to Belkin because I've never had a problem with their products. I recommend it highly or its replacement.
