Heavy duty protection for your ipod
I absolutely love Pelican cases. I own nearly a dozen and actually had been using one of their smaller cases for my iPod, but had craved a case specifically catered to an iPod. Imagine my joy when I discovered this case. This case will protect your iPod from nearly andy conceivable type of harm. It is crush resistant, waterproof, buoyant, and will definately protect your iPod from any and every scratch. An absolutely fabulous feature of this case is the external headphone jack. This watertight, rotating jack allows the user to listen to the iPod while it is still sealed within. The case is heavy and fairly large, but then again it is catered towards people who want to use their iPods while out in the wilderness, but dont want to risk harming them. I highly recommend it to outdoor ethusiasts or anyone who desires serious iPod protection.
Protect your iPod with the best
iPods are expensive. When I think of all the accessories and things I bought for my iPod I would say really expensive. This case protects that investment. It's amazingly sturdy, as hard as a motorcycle helmet and comes with a easy to carry strap. I really feel like I could put my iPod in there and drop it from a good height and it would still be ok. Not that I'm going to do that but the case is really that great, like a mini black steel briefcase. It may be water proof, I haven't tested it yet but I wouldn't be surprised because of the high quality of it. Another great feature is that you can plug your head phones directly into the case and there's a wire inside that connects to the iPod's audio jack, so you can listen to music without taking it out of the case. You can't changes songs or adjust the volume or go up and down the menu but you can listen. My iPod connects to my car stereo through my glove box; I love putting it in this case so it doesn't get banged up while I'm driving. It keeps my 80 GB iPod very safe and even fits snuggly when it's dressed in an iSkin.
Really sturdy excellent for travel, small iPod sized case.
When only the best will do
This is the product to buy when you absolutely, positively want to protect your ipod. I have one that has been in a pack throughout 3 years of heavy use plus airline and Amtrak travel and in numerous rafts on whitewater float trips and it works perfectly. Pelican cases are not the cheapest on the market...just the best. These cases will do what they say they will do and there is an iron-clad guarantee.
