I have been looking all over the web for an ipod case that fits my 3G 20G ipod. I want my case to fit the following requirements:
1) The case allows access to the dock without having to be taken off.
2) The case has a belt clip
3) The case allows accesories in the top ports, i.e. iTrip.
Is the iSkin exo the only one that fits these categories? Is it asking too much of the design industry to give me everything I want in one functional and good-looking case?
Any suggestions are much appreciated.

xSkn exoflp. It meets all your requirements and comes in 15 colors. You can purchase them from lajo's site, www.xskn.com. Use IE on their site if you are on a PC.

Sounds good to me--but I don't like rubber skins for fear of grit getting between the case and the iPod and rubbing tightly against the plastic.)
I'd like to see a fabric case where the bottom part tugs off via velcro, leaving EXACTLY the right part of the iPod exposed for the dock. The removed bottom-cap could stick to the back of the iPod for storage out of sight without getting lost.
Or at least, a skin where the "extra" part folds back out of sight instead of forward and looking ugly.

I will check out that case right away. Thanks so much for the quick response.

I know what you mean about stuff getting on the ipod underneath the rubber skin, I have an iSkin exo right now and have had to mod the skin to get my iTrip to fit on it. I am looking into the fabric/leather cases because the look a bit more sophisticated...We'll see what else the industry comes up with. Thanks for the reply!

I just ordered a Podsleevz. Seems like the best compromise out there. For more protection and a clip, I can just slip THAT into the included Apple belt case.
