Anyone tried the iFrogz cases? I am thinking of getting a set and wanted to know opinions.

http://www.ifrogz.com is the website.

I am thinking black with a green stripe for my ipod video... I don't think I would use the wheel thing though kinda weird and I wonder how well it works...

If you own a nano then protection is key...... im guessing the same goes for the video ipod- since they're made of the same material (i think)
i find the iSkin optimal for the nano, and they make ones for the video ipod too--
if its as good as the one for the nano then i advise u to run to the store n get tht instead

I bought an ifrogz skin for my ipod video, and can assure you that it is superb protection. The rubber texture is very smooth, and covers almost the entire surface of the ipod video (I have a 60gb).
So you get your package from ifrogz, you put a light, thin plastic screen protector over the face of the ipod. Then you apply the wheel decal (necessary, because there are air bubbles that form under the plastic screen protector around the wheel). Then you slip the ipod in through the video window of the rubber case, finesse the cover into place on top, and put the bandz around it.
A suggestion: the bandz have a headphone hole on the top right. In order to get this to work properly, push the headphone connector through the bands first, and then click the headphone connector into the ipod. The bandz actually works to hold your headphone connector in more securely.
A caveat: if you have a 30gb ipod video, then the ifrogz comes with a thin white plastic filler that fits in behind your ipod. They don't make 2 sizes of the skinz, just 1. It's really not noticeable, though (my wife has one, and it works fine for her 30gb). Otherwise, I am really enjoying mine. Hope this is helpful.

they are great! I mean GREAT! I am using one right now, but beware, if you use the Lanyard Headphones, you got to make a little seizure at the bottom of it like I did and that's it! it will work like a glove. buy it !

do not get it if you have a 30 gb because they will give you an insert so if you want to lose the style and the way it feels so if you do not care about style then it doesnt matter
