Tunewear have a nice transparent mini case; http://tunewear.com -- Personally, if I had a mini, the choice of a clear case is a given; the mini is already colored.

ok... first of all im going to assume u own an iPod MINI, and not anything else since u ARE posting in the Mini Forums....
there is only one case available from iSkin that fits the mini, and that is the iSkin Mini, here: http://www.iskin.com/store/I2shop_mini.tpl
if u for sum reason posted in the wrong place and have a 4G iPod, then get the iSkin Evo 2 here: http://www.iskin.com/store/I2shop_evo2.tpl?command=showcart&cart=1096822376114353&db=sku00.db&Product=I2shop_evo2.tpl
if u have the slightly older 3G, then get the Evo here: http://www.iskin.com/store/I2shop_evo.tpl?command=showcart&cart=1096822376114353&db=sku00.db&Product=I2shop_evo.tpl
the exo is for the 3G iPod, and the only difference i found was that it includes a "stainless steel rotary belt clip", a screen protector and a "safety hand strap", and if u want that then go here:
http://www.iskin.com/store/I2shop_exo2.tpl?command=showcart&cart=1096822376114353&db=sku00.db&Product=I2shop_exo2.tpl
i would recommend the artic iSkin cuz, if u have a mini, it shows the color of ur iPod
hope this helps

I have Icewear from Tunewear and enjoy it. It is transparent so you can still see the colour of your ipod.

second pic of two... this time its outside of the iSkin... in the bottom left you can barely see the screen protector... and btw the light that is visible in both pics is from a flashlight i was holdin (took both with one hand)... i was tryin to show the true colors and i kept blurring it with normal light, and the flash would make it waaay to bright

lol. thanx for the pics. arctic is the transparent?
i was thinking of getting either arctic, carbon or ebony or maybe ghost coz it glows. but not that interested in white.
anyways.. i'll make my decision when i get my ipod mini next month.

yea the artic is the most transparent of the group
i would advise not to get the carbon and ebony cuz they supposedly attract alooooot of dust and dirt
wut color mini do u want/ did u order ? just a random question

well.. i am probably 80% going to get the silver but i've only seen the blue and silver mini's so i may like some of the other colours.
yeah.. i thought the darker colours would attrack dust. then i might go for the arctic.

To answer your question about where to get iPods + cases in Australia, check the http://apple.com.au website; they have the locations of resellers in your state.

hi again guys.. i've changed my mind. hehe...
i've read some more posts and i've realised that if i get the arctic then i'll be stuck with the one colour.
lets be honest. everybody would get bored of silver ...(although in the 'best' colour thread green looked the winner.. i'll see which one i choose when i go shopping next month. =P)
so i think i'm gonna go for something totally different to silver/green/whatever is good so i can mix it up a bit. not the same old boring colour. hehe..
what do you guys think? i was thinking sonic, carbon, ebony or lava. i havn't heard much about the darker colours.. i know they attract dust but they do look pretty kool and professional..
which one is better. i do like the glo aspect on the lava though. =P:

ok well...
the glow ones seem to suit you since you seem to want to not be stuck with the same color... forever
the ghost is white, but glows blue.. i would advise against it simply because if would make ur mini look like a normal iPod, and that of course would be no fun
the lava is orange and glows orange/yellow... in other words you would be stuck with an orange-ish color so again, i would advise against it...
the wasabi looks pretty tight from the pics, but again, is only one color (green)
the vamp seems like the choice for you if you dunt mind the purple... its purple and glows blue, so you would have two colors
just do wut u feel more leaned to... there all the same quality :D
hope this helps your color-decision

hmm...
well.. i'm deciding between lava, ebony or sonic.
i'm not really into purple.. =P
and the lava glow colour is quite different to the orange so i don't mind that aspect.
does anybody have an ebony skin? does it attract alot of dust and should i steer clear of it?
right now.. my first preference would have to be lava. (oranga is kool) and then ebony.
anyways.. thanx for replies. helped me alot.
