The Speck Skin-Tight 4G iPod cases look nothing out of the ordinary, looks like a regular skin for an iPod. The 3-Pack deal for $30 isn't to bad either ($29.95) but only with selected colors (blue, white, and pink) It doesn't have screen protecters, "If you are concerned about screen scratches, you can simply cut a square of plastic from the package the skin comes with. " - Speck

I think the speck skin tight cases are actually quite neat, i'm deciding whether or not to order a 3-Pack and I just was wondering if anyone else has one, and if he/she liked it. Feel free to post your thoughts and comments.

It really depends if you have a 20GB or a 40GB. I got the Speck skin for my 4th Gen 40 GB and I took it back the next day because it did not fit the thicker 40GB iPod (for me at least) -- it buckled at the edge of the window hole and touchwheel hole due to being ill fitting, the flap at the bottom did not close right for me, and it was REALLY hard to get on and off (and you should take your iPod out of whatever case it's in when you charge it). Some people on this forum report that it worked for them, but many others had the same experience I did.

I sent Speck an email at the end of November, inquiring if the 4G skin tight cases would fit the iPod photo, and they replied with the following:

"Hello Lisa- we'll have iPod photo skins available in about a month. They will feature screen protection.
thanks!

Amy Cesari"

I signed up for their email notification about new products, but haven't received anything yet...
