I wanted this case for its reflective look, and so far, it's delivered quite well. Unfortunately, it's been scratched a few times, but that's because it's been put into a bag with my keys and cell phone. I don't like however, how the bottom is left completely uncovered, but it makes sense that Griffin designed it to be used with the iPod Dock, so it can't have anything there.

When you install it, be careful not to nick the "cbromed" surface, or get anything inside, or else you'll end up with an imperfect finish. With a black iPod, this case will look amazing, and with a silver iPod, it still looks decent.

I don't know why Amazon can't deliver for 4-6 weeks. I bought one at Best Buy last week for the same price. I love this case. It fits my 160 GB Classic perfectly. The halves stick together well, yet are easy to pry apart. It looks cool. The reflecting coating is on the inside of the front half and does diminish the screen brightness a bit, but it still is easy to see in most rooms at full brightness. The best thing is that the bottom is flush with the bottom of the iPod while still holding it firmly. This means that it will fit in most cradles without needing to remove the case. Most important for me is that it fits in my iHome IH8 clock radio.

3.0 out of 5 stars pretty but annoying, June 29, 2009

This iPod case is very attractive - it's shiny and reflective, and very pretty visually. It's also very thin so it doesn't add bulk, and I really like the rubber-like texture on the back of the case, which provides a nice gripping surface.

My big complaint is that the reflective material is also used on the area that covers the screen. It's a little difficult to see the screen when I'm indoors - if I'm trying to watch a movie on it I end up taking the case off. It's MUCH worse when I'm outside. Peering at the screen outdoors, all I can see is my own annoyed face looking back at me.

It was quite inexpensive, though, and provides good protection, so I'm continuing to use it until I find something I like better.
