Customer Reviews

Withstood a 4' drop to pavement and a mid-sized SUV5
I purchased the Jam Jacket to protect my newly purchased iTouch on my morning bike commute. I was pedaling hard up a hill when the clip slipped off my belt and onto the pavement below, down the hill, and into the street. As if that wasn't bad enough, a discourteous motorist swerved out of his way to run it over.

I was expecting to have lost $300 bucks right then and there, but as I got closer, I could still hear my iTouch belting out the tunes. The screen had several punctures from the pavement, but they did not penetrate the screen protector that came with the jam jacket. The only mark that I could find was a slight indentation on the back where the clip had been pressed up against iTouch.

Pros:
1) REALLY durable

Cons:
1) The clip. While I'm impressed by the overall protection from the Jam Jacket, I could have avoided the entire incident if the clip had a stronger grip. Something spring loaded might have held well.

Tips:
1) If you're going to be moving around a lot, consider securing your iTouch by some other means. The clip slides off easily.

2) There were no instructions for installing the screen protector. It took me a while to figure out the protector was sealed between two sheets of thinner plastic that must be peeled off before applying.

3) Save the little paper fold with the fake iTouch screen on it. Place it behind your iTouch in the case. This will prevent the round clip from scratching the back of your iTouch.

Skin review BEWARE OF THE SCRATCHES!3
This skin works pretty well on the outside, easy to get iTouch in and out, but the clip scratches the back of the iTouch in a circle shape after being in the skin for a while. Kind of upset the first time I took the iTouch out and saw the scratches, which are too deep to rub out. I put some felt in between the clip and the touch, but the damage was already done.

Good so far4
Just got this because I needed a way to stand up my Touch because I'm using it a lot as an e-book reader. The clip stand is a bit wobbly but does the job and the silicone material seems to protect my iPod better than the hard plastic case I had previously. Thanks to the reviewers for posting about the scratches on the back, I'll follow the recommendations to prevent it. DLO makes good cases, I've used their cases on other mp3 players and they're good quality and well made.
Update 2/26/09-I'm very happy with this case, it makes reading on my iPod a lot easier and the clip is sturdy enough at least for my pants waist. If you type a lot, you might find yourself hitting the wrong key when you're close to the raised edge of the case, but that same edge protects the glass screen, as I witnessed when my iPod fell to the floor screen facing down and it wasn't damaged at all.
