I want to get the Xtrememac or the CEO classic for my 20gb. I like fixed clip like the marware, not swivel, but I can't tell from the picture what the Xtrememac comes with. Also the Marware looks like the plastic covers the buttons, is this good?
anyone who owns these I will appreciate any comments you have on them, I don't have much money and want to buy the right thing. Thanks.

well i have the xtrememac and think it's pretty good as it comes with a front cover.. marware's front cover version is pretty tick.
however, the plastic covering the buttons does help prevent dirt from getting in so it may be better.
the xtrememac comes with a swivel clip, which has it good and bad points, but i don't think i makes a big difference?

Hi, actually the swivel clip is pretty important to me. I want a fixed one like the Marware, think I'll give it a shot and then I'll let you know. Thanks!
Well, I gave my Xtrememac case a road test today and found it very easy to use - the swivel clip makes it easy to take it off my belt and access the controls of my old 5gb'r. The flap provides protection for the controls and the case isn't too bulky as some cases are.
The extra time mulling over which case to get paid off really. Well the fact it was half price made a lot of difference too!!!
