hey guys,
just wondering, will ipod socks protect as a primary method to protect my ipod? apple is supposed to replace my ipod because they scratched it but i wanna make sure that my new one remains scratch free. i didn't really like my iskin because it's got too many holes for scratches in it and at the same time, the click wheel is exposed and lets dust underneath it and scratch it. i'm not worried about dropping my ipod, so my primary concern is scratching it. will the sock fibre scratch the ipod? or is it really soft? it looks like it's pretty tight around the ipod, so i dunno if it lets dust in or not. also, what about the top of the ipod? is it exposed?

i want a cheap alternative, and i can buy individual socks on ebay for cheap. i like the idea of holding the ipod in my hands, not with a case around it that makes it too thick.

thanks again!

as you know, it was like event joke. protection is not guarantee but it will be resisted cold weather to get warm because temperature is very important to run your ipod. so you should keep ipod inside jacket or coat for running hard drive well.

well the thing is that right now i put my ipod in a glove, so i actually like the idea of the ipod socks. plus i think they look pretty nice. the name is ######ed, but the idea is nice and simple. like maybe if they called them ipod gloves or ipod jackets or i dunno what, they'd sound a little better, but my main concern is whether or not the fabric itself will scratch the ipod, since as we all know, some fabric does.

i'll take another look at the reviews though. thanks again :)
anyone else have anything to say about the fabric?
