i have a shuffle on the way, im worried about protecting it. i will wear it while at work which means its going to be literally covered in sweat for 5 hours. i bought the official apple sport case but read so many bad reviews of it im not expecting it to hold out very long. is there any silicon skin that will keep the usb port from rusting or are they mostly to keep scratchs away.

ive seen silicon cases that are 2 piece but that seems like it would be a waste when protecting against water, i would want a one piece. removing the skin to connect the shuffle isnt a problem.
:rolleyes:

might be overkill, but the OtterBox is submersible to 3 feet, so you wouldn't have to worry about sweat (and could even keep it on in the shower)
