Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Feeling a little blue today? Maybe your mood leans on the pink side. Either way, iPod nano Tubes have you covered. Constructed from smooth, treated silicone that resists dirt and stains, they come in a set of five colors: purple, pink, blue, green and clear. Just slip iPod nano in from the bottom or through the screen window to add a splash of flavor and deliver instant protection from scratches and bumps. You can still access the Click Wheel and hold switch.

I got my iPod nano on the first day it was released in stores and I love it, but it just scratches way too easily. These finally arrived at the Apple store and I am quite pleased. They slip over your nano perfectly and certainly make it FEEL more durable without adding a significant amount of bulk. It also fixes what I believe is the nano's biggest design flaw: it adds a layer to the front that lets you distinguish by touch which part of the click wheel you want to press. I no longer have to look at the nano to find which button I want to press. The tubes themselves also look very cool. I like the colors that Apple included in the set. As far as I can tell (one other reviewer felt differently), it does not scratch the nano when taking them on and off. My only complaint--and the reason it gets four stars instead of five--is that it does nothing to prevent scratches to the screen, which is the most important part of the unit. Still, this is probably the best product to protect your precious new nano.

These "tubes" are an awesome buy but there is a slight problem with the. While they protect your ipod, they actually scratch it when you take it in and out. This isnt really a problem since you should have a cover on all the time but I think its kinda silly that the very thing that is suppose to be protecting them is scratching them. Ohh well... the ipod looks amazingly cool in them though. Pretty good buy although i would recommend looking at other possibilities.

5.0 out of 5 stars OMG I LOVE THESE!!!, March 1, 2006

I was so upset when I got finger prints on my ipod. when it scratched. I got these and they are great. They make the ipod feel less delicate and you're not so afraid of breaking it. It gives it traction too so that it won't slip off your table, or out of your hand. the only problem I've found is that with the tubes on it won't fit in my armband. Oh well, thats a very good sacrifice for this kind of cool. haha....
