I searched the web high and low for a Nano case that is 1) clear, 2) hard/protective, and 3) has a belt clip so I can run with it. This case is wonderful and exceeded my expectations!

I was initially drawn to this case for the convenience of the sidewinder, but was delighted to discover it came with a clip! (The description on Amazon didn't even mention the clip.) I found this item on other websites, but the Amazon price is cheapest and includes shipping (another site was charging $6.95 for shipping).

Highlights:
1. Hard protective shell/case
2. Clear case shows off the color of the Nano
3. Convenient slide-away arm (sidewinder) for earphones tucks away completely
4. Belt/pocket clip (for running!) is removable for a more streamline design
5. Protective film for the screen and click wheel (even though the screen is already protected by the hard shell
6. Cleaning cloth
7. Additional clip options for a car dashboard, bike, belt (which rotates) - sold on Amazon for $19.99

I didn't find the lid to be loose as one reviewer stated. On the contrary, it seems very snug. This case is practical, functional, and a good bargain at $21.79. I opted for the overnight shipping and received it in time for my run that afternoon. I immediately returned to the Apple store the simpler case I bought for $29 + tax.

This Ipod Nano case is good, but there are a couple of things that would have been done better. The cover has a lid that is very loose and can come off easily. The cord managment system is great.
