Hi, I am looking for a case for my iPod photo. I like the RadTech PodSleevz, but I would like a case that i can keep on my iPod while it is in the dock. Are there any cases like this?

Thanks!

I've had a number of them but like the Podsleeve.

You could put a PodSleevz or an iPod sock on upside-down!

Seriously though... You could try a Speck SkinTight, as the bottom flips open for docking.

This one's for the 4G 20GB and 40GB. You can either risk it, and hope that there's enough slack for the iPod Photo (a little bit thicker), or you can wait for a new model.

I have one and it's great. BUT, I have a 40 gig and truthfully, the case is a little small (I'm sure it fits the 20 gig perfectly). If you have an iPod photo I'd recommend waiting until they release one that will fit better.

I've got one of these sitting here waiting to go back to Fly's. Trust me ... it will NOT fit a 40GB iPod Photo. :-(

From the Speck Products website:
Pre-Order Now!

300 Frosted clears will be available on 12-27-04. Pre-order yours today by clicking the "Buy" button above. Your card will not be charged until they ship.
I ordered mine Sunday the 26th. I wonder if there's any chance in hell I'm one of the first 300? And if not, I wonder how long the additional wait will be? Guess I'll know for sure if my card is charged today.



UPDATE: Got notice mine shipped. Go Speck!

so i quite like this case, although the screen protector came a bit scratched. meh, who cares. it fits nicely, and feels solid, although it does make the ipod feel even bigger-but that's expected.
