Well, since there are lots of kinds of cases, and I don't have any experience with any of them, I'm coming here to ask you guys what you use and what you think the best case for a 20GB 4G iPod. Thanks in advance.

the opinions for the best case are often very subjective, since nobody has ever purchased every single case on the market as far as I know. read the reviews if you are intended to buy a case. Please tell us your peference (the durability, size, profile, look, accessability, price and etc.) I am pretty sure we will find a best case you are looking for.btw, other than mental and hardplastic cases, most of the cases have their own life time. they need to be replaced eventually. (they get stretched, dirty, broken, spilled and etc.)

I peronsally like the iSkin Evo2. Provides great protection and a nice feel.

Well, I'm leaning towards the iSkin Evo2. Looks great, sounds great. But, I read somewhere that it won't work well with the iTrip, which is something I will probably be getting. Other than that though, the Evo2 looks awesome for me. Buuuut, I just looked at the ExoFlp, and that seems pretty cool too. What do you guys suggest?

What are the disadvantages of the thicker cases?

Hahaha. I was just looking at the "Ice" colour of the Exo3x, and it doesn't seem as see-through as the "Arctic" Evo2. I can't really tell though, since it is on a computer screen. So, you would recommend the Exo3x?

i dont know. I have read a review and seen some pics of this case (posted by the same person). I'd say it looks ok. its not expensive or buky but offers sufficient protection. i just wanna give it a try. I bought a second hand evo2 for 18 usd 2 days ago. I will do a comparison between these two when they arrive. btw, if you wanna order exo3x, go to the website i mentioned above. the lajo official website is a disaster.

Hmmm. This is a super hard decision. That "Ice" colour is hardly see-through by the looks of it, but the other kinds of cases are either too thick or too thin. Baah.

I have enjoyed the new Egrips for my IPOD. It is much cheaper than a conventional case and is provides grip and protection. The best part is that it keeps my IPOD from sliding on the dash of my car or being knocked off my desk. Here is a link. IPOD Egrips (http://www.egrips.com/catalog/default.php?cPath=27?ref=29)

I'm still having trouble finding the perfect case for my 4G 40Gb. I want something that (1) works with iTrip and (2) hopefully docks w/out removing the case. I would get the Speck case, but it's not fitted for the 40Gb. The Lajo cases just give me a headache. :p

My current case right now is the Incase Folio which is seriously sweet!

But I've been considering getting a some sort of stylish case and I just found this link on Livejournal to some people who make these spiffy iPod cases and say they can customize ones for you!
