The week in iPod cases
Lots o' new cases this week (should probably credit iPodlounge for finding most of these):
- Burning Love USA: New pouches in different colors and fabrics. I like these a lot. Burning Love USA
- IpodStyles: They're selling a line of iPod pouches (they call them sleeves) very similar to the aforementioned Burning Love products. Big selection of colors and designs. They look nice.
- Incase Designs: They've introduced simple neoprene sleeves for the iPod shuffle. They feature a silk screened pictograph of the shuffle's controls on the outside of the case, which although I'm sure it's useful, looks kinda funny and makes me chuckle. Nothing on the Incase web site about them, but iPodlounge has lots of pictures.
- Tunewear: They've got a new aluminum sleeve for iPod shuffle. There is a big, hooked clip on the back that looks pretty serious. The pretty silver colored aluminum is strong and light. I like this a lot, but judging by the pictures it looks like it might not protect the shuffle's corners. See aluminum clipwear.
- Booqbag: They've introduced the most menacing sounding of iPod cases yet seen, the Venom for regular iPod and iPod mini. Coddle your iPod baby in suede and leather. Not too expensive either ($30 and $45).
Check out my review of the Moshi iPouch if you missed it earlier this week. Now I've taken to just carrying the iPouch in my WaterField gear bag, even when my iPod is not in it, so I can use it to clean my iPods and sunglasses if necessary. Gotta love it.
