...be prepared to do a little work to make it work. This case not only offers fashionable and durable protection for my iPod (original casing, screen and click-wheel), but when I want to watch a movie, the case can be fastened in to a convenient stand. This is definitely a welcome change from staring down at the table, which is a strain if you do it often. Also nice if you are plugged into speakers and more than one person is watching. In theory? Wonderful idea. In practice? It takes awhile to "break the case in" enough for the fastener to actually stay shut and not pop open just as soon as you snap the thing together for viewing in kickstand mode. I would have preferred a case where you could plug in an electric charger or a TuneJuice while in kickstand mode, but you can still easily charge while your case is in standard mode. For the price, it's definitely a nicer product than most of the leather cases I've looked at. For ultimate functionality? Ultimately well worth it, particularly if you watch a lot of videos and short clips on your iPod.

I was always uptight about my iPod getting scratched or broken and I almost wouldn't take it out of my room, but with the case I can be a little more relaxed. The kickstand feature is great for watching videos so you don't have to hold it. I bought the black color and it looks very stylish. So I give it 5 stars for being functional, feesable, and most-importantly good looking.

I bought this years ago for I don't even know which generation iPod I had. It worked great to watch movies with the kickstand, they should make something like this for the itouch! (the iTouch wasn't out yet when I got this)
It's a bit chunk but it's a good case.

PRODUCT IS GREAT BUT THERE IS PLASTIC OVER THE MENU SECTION WHICH CAUSES DIFFICULTY IN USING IT. I HAD TO CUT IT OUT..PROBLEM SOLVED. U WOULD THINK THEY WOULD HAVE TESTED IT.

I bought this leather case for my wife's 30GB video iPod. I had a black one for myself. The case protects the iPod perfectly, since very little is exposed to the elements. The true feature of this case is the ability to create a "kickstand" to allow perfect viewing of the screen for movies, TV shows, or music videos. I watch my iPod on my lunch break all the time, and this case is prefect. The only negative aspect of the case is the belt clip at the bottom of the case. It must be unclipped in order to charge the iPod. But this is also a good thing as the belt will help protect the connector from getting dirty or damaged as is the possibility with cases that allow easy access. The reason for this design is it is necessary to slide the iPod down thru the bottom (and out of the top half of the case) in order to create the kickstand position. I'd highly recommned this case for your Video iPod.

Also works fine for the new Classic iPod. The click wheel is less responsive for some reason with new iPods tho.
