I know alot of people ask about it, and are weary of putting water on there Nano, but I went ahead and did it and I must say that the Nano works flawlessly.

First off only takes a bit of water to wet both sides, to move it around and that is about it, just squeeze out the extra water.

The shield is dam near invisible, and screen looks very good. The texture of the shield is nice, and very very thin, adds no Bulk.

I am about getting the cover case as well, but even in cases The nana can still get scratced from slight movement, or dirt.

With this shield, I can still use all cases, and arm bands becuase it is so thin, and It will never get scratched.

Just some of my own advice but the shield is very good. I am impressed.

is the $20 worth it for someone who is planning on selling it in about a year for the next gen nano? cant decide..

I would say its even more worth it if your going to sell it. Im sure a nano in pristine condition would go for alot more then one that is all scratched up.

well if i dont go for the $20 invisible shield, i'd get a cheaper alternative like a cyrstal shield clear skin from decalgirl for $3.99

so... what do you think now..

Actually, with some cases it really won't work -- it's just not that thin. For example, it is a VERY tight fit in the Contour Showcase and can barely be removed. When you do remove it, it gets scratched in the corners because it is so tight. Similarly, it will NOT work with belt clips that snugly fit -- I actually dented my Ipod by using the Apple belt clip on it after the Invisible Shield was put on. Now, slipcase-style cases (like the original one put out by Apple) are no problem, but any that are created with tight tolerances will be a problem -- so be careful when/if you use it with other accessories. I was not happy when I dented it because I put it in a belt clip.

BTW my comments obviously apply to the Ipod 20 gig that I put the shield on. Since no cases are out yet for the Nano, time will tell if the Shield will fit them. I do think it will be a problem with some of them, and certainly with belt clips that rely on friction to hold the Nano.

wouldn't water get in the nanos crevices (ie. around the button on the clickwheel?)

water and electronics just don't mix.

yea i know screw that ill stick to sillicon and besides glue is no good for anything either. and all of you fools that say otherwise jus look up the definition of glue- an agent that bonds two objects together.... and also many if not all glues contain acid or alcohol which slowly eat away at your ipods sleek surface. making it look hazy over time

It's not going to eat the finish. They use the stuff as clear bra and it doesn't eat the paint on cars.
