Does anyone know if there is anyone who sells iPod cases and any other accessories in the UK? For some reason US vendors want to charge between $25 and $40 for international delivery, I mean how much can a neoprene case weigh? I don't want it to have it's own seat on the plane and an in flight movie.

Tell me about it. I think this is one aspect of the internet that gets overlooked by those in the US.

This company: marware have probably the best deal going, you can get up to 2 mp3 cases shipped for $12 but I don't see why they can't just charge me $6 for one.
Yeah, that iRock looks cool, i've seen products which do the same although this is the first one i've seen where they give you an idea of the range in the specification. I want to beam songs to the other side of the house rather than my car stereo.
On the subject of buying from the US i've had some really weird problems in the past, I thought the whole idea of credit cards and the internet was that they were global, apparently not!

I got a suitable case on Tottengham Court Road; one of the camera shops sells cases of all sizes, and I paid six quid for one that isn't neoprene, but does have sufficient room for the iPod.
Its also got a nice little pocket on the front (I use it for a second set of earbuds), as well as a belt loop. I drop the iPod into it after kicking off some 'tunes, zip the top shut and that's that.
Can't remember the name of the shop, but its one of the bigger camera / electronics stores and, interstingly, all of the booths inside are owned by independents.
