The strap is long enough but not comfortable. I took it to work and ended up with three bruises on my arm because of it! There isn't any support or comfort. The case works well.
The screen protectors were old and/or cheap. The placement stickers didn't come off all the way so I have gunk on my screen and iPOD's backside.

This is a nice, inexpensive and necessary set for your new iPod (mine is the video, 30gb model). The set contains clear sticky pieces to place on the front, back and dial of your iPod, a silicon skin and a wrap for your arm if you like to wear it while exercising. The sticky sheets must be put on slowly and on a very clean surface. Wipe your iPod off and try not to leave any lint or dust (which will cause air pockets), taking the front sticky piece (which has the center cut-out) peel off the backing and start at the top corner of the iPod and smooth it across the front, trying to push out any bubbles that may appear. If you need to lift the sheet off, any bending of the corner will cause the plastic to stay bent so try to do it right the first time. After smoothing out the bubbles, it will continue to settle and look pretty transparent. I didn't use the dial covering piece since the silicon will cover that area. After you do one piece, you've got the knack for the other piece/s. The silicon stretches nicely and snugly, but doesn't look that great when humidity causes it to stick to areas of the iPod. I found that adding a VERY light dusting of talc to the interior of the silicon skin before stretching it on, keeps the silicon from sticking to the iPod and the color of the silicon skin appears pretty even looking. The skin still stays on the iPod, protecting it from scratches. The armband is nice and slips through a slot in the back of the silicon skin but it isn't a very tight or secure fit because of the weight of the iPod and the lightness of the skin and, if you're running, I would imagine that the iPod could still slip out of the silicon skin, especially the top which has less of the silicon cover because of the screen area. I'm still able to charge it with the skin on, using my USB cable. For a first-time iPod user (like myself), this is an adequate and inexpensive accessory which will show you to what you would look for in the future, when you want to pay more for iPod protection.

This case is very simple. It is not as rugged as an iSkin. It does not have a belt clip. It fits very well on my 30G Video iPod. With the skin on, the "hold" button is a bit hard to activate.

The screen protector is a bit odd. It fits over the entire front of the iPod, not just the screen. It's in three pieces with diecuts for the click wheel. The directions are very scant, and I didn't realize that you DON'T take the pieces apart: you attach then as if there is only one piece.

With the protector on, the iPod behaves as it should. No problem using the click wheel.

However, this particular screen protector is obviously not intended to be used with this case, since the case has it's own click wheel cover!

It's still an overall good value.

Don't bother wasting your money on this, it's flimsy and does not form fit the iPod Classic 80. Also the clear plastic lcd cover does not fit well.

I should have used this money and bought a harder case from another company like Belkin.

The skin and the screen protectors came and they were exactly as described. Put them on immediately. The armband did not come.

Although the product descripstion is exactly what you get. I did not like the way it fit the Ipod. Also The silicone that goes over the track wheel makes it very hard for the track wheel to recognize that it is supposed to be doing something. In the end I decided to chuck the case and leave the Ipod caseless.

Wasn't real happy with this case because it was difficult to use the controller for the iPod.

I never recieved the product, PLEASE DO NOT BUY FROM THIS SELLER. This is not an appropriate way to conduct business and I hope no one else has the same unfortunate experience.

I purchased the black silicone case package for my 80g iPod Classic and it looks sick on the iPod but the flexibility of the material makes it extremely difficult to operate the clickwheel, sometimes I have to reach under the casing to just select my music, adjust volume, and scroll through my music lists. Over time it seems the silicone material has stretched out making it even more frustrating to use the clickwheel.
The screen protector is great except that it came with an annoying sticker on it and removing it left behind an unattractive sticky film that was impossible to remove.
The armband itself was big, bulky, unattractive, and didn't seem to work very well without cutting off the circulation to my arm - that was thrown out within the first week.
I wouldn't reccommend this product, for the price you could find something much more iPod user friendly.

Item had to be altered inorder to work. The film cover over the control wheel is too thick and would not allow the wheel to be used.Adhesives used were awefull , the arm band is too large and the elastic is weak. I have been so disappointed by products out of China that are supposedly compatible for iPod products. I will buy direct from Apple in the future and then be satisfied with the product.
