So I'm going on a 1 year trip of South America and I'm taking my iPod Photo to store my photos on. I'd like to know whats the best sleeve to put it in for daily use. I'm thinking thick, thick, THICK rubber to absorb impacts. I'm not too worried about scratches really but I'm worried about dropping it.... :S
Also, whats a good travel case that I'd be able to store the iPod, Recharger, Real (not in-ear) Headphones and maybe an accessory or two?
ANY answer would be appreciated but if you can throw me a link or maybe an online store that has them I'd be very grateful.
Craig.

I'm currently leaning towards the otterbox. Although the xtreme mac xtreme case looks nice too.
Hmmm, South America, away for a year, absorb impacts, maybe stop moisture?
Have you checked the iPod accessory review ratings? here (http://www.ipodlounge.com/index.php/reviews/review_grades/C74/)
Some ideas...

I figure I'll just buy a regular pelican case for the larger travel case. I can cut out foam inserts myself so it's perfect for my needs.
I'm thinking about the iPod armour now as well. I was not going to get that one but I'm getting a remote so the access isn't as big a deal. But I dunno....
I'll probably end up walking into a few mac dealers with my iPod and just buy the best one.
