iPod Nano Cases dot net Review:
There’s a reason why Speck call this line of cases ToughSkin. Made of thick and very durable silicone, Speck’s ToughSkin case gives your iPod ruggedized dropproof and scratchproof protection. However, the ToughSkin dropproof protection is no match for the Otterbox Armor Waterproof Case.
The Speck ToughSkin case fits nice and snug on your iPod, although iPod Nano Cases dot net should make note to you that you do need to take the case off before docking your iPod. However, you can plug things into the audio jack (that’s a given, but we put that in there just in case you were wondering) and the bottom opening.
We tried plugging an iPod into the iPod cable for a Sony car stereo receiver with the Speck ToughSkin case on, and the iPod cable would not stay on. However, this particular iPod cable seemed a little unsual, so we wouldn’t doubt that it should work fine with most other cables and adapters with the ToughSkin case on.
It takes as little as fifteen seconds to install on your iPod.
The Speck ToughSkin adds just a little bulk to your iPod Nano, but not too much to be worried about. The case is a rather attractive one and available in bright and vivid colors (in addition to clear and black).
ToughSkin is available in the following colors: Clear, black, green, blue, and pink
Overall, the ToughSkin case is a great looking case that will give your iPod Nano the necessary protection.
Case in Blue $24.94 and eligible for Free Shipping
Case in Black$13.90 and eligible for Free Shipping
Case in Pink $11.27
Case in Clear $14.99 and eligible for Free Shipping
Case in Green $21.70 and eligible for Free Shipping

You heard right. With the Otterbox Armor Waterproof iPod cases, you can take your iPod in up to 3 feet of water. Great for wading or light swimming, but no surfing or scuba diving as the case is not built to withstand that type of pressure.
iPod Nano Cases dot net has tested the 2nd generation iPod Nano Otterbox Armor case with positive results. We’ve dropped it from heights of three to six feet, let it sit for an hour in a big bowl of fresh water, took it in the shower and to the beach, and let the kids play with it and toss it around…and our iPod, as well as the Otterbox case, is still in excellent condition.
The case is just a little bulky, but what the Otterbox Armor case lacks in compact portability and aesthetic appeal, it makes up in the protection area. It is waterproof, dirtproof, sandproof, and dropproof.
The case comes with an attached, but removable, belt clip. An armband is also available for purchase (if you like running in the rain or doing laps in a swimming pool with music, just strap your mp3 player safely and securely on your arm…then you’ll be all set to enjoy the music in a hands-free manner). Waterproof headphones are also available for purchase.
Imagine the portability possibilities as to where you can take your mp3 player with this case. Mud-bogging, dirt biking, lap swimming, running/jogging in the rain…if you are always on the go and very active physically, this is the product for you.
If you scroll all the way to the bottom of this post, you will see links to the second and third iPod Nano generations versions of the Otterbox Armor case.
