3.0 out of 5 stars Great Holster, ABsolutely lousy clip, January 28, 2004

By	C. Boyd "macsensai" (New York) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Amazon Verified Purchase

I recently upgraded to a 3G iPod. When I saw this, I thought it would be the perfect solution for those people who actually USE their iPod, not bury it in a case. If you're worried about scratches all the time, I doubt you are enjoying the music much. This would allow for easy access and quick connection connections. It would also double as a quick and easy car holder.

I received the holster and slid the iPod in. Perfect fit to my slim 3G. Excellent so far. Nice fit and quality, great grip. Then I clipped the holder on the clip. A little loose on the fit I thought. Then I squeezed the clip. It shattered. No, it wasn't cold. Room temp. The sides just cracked and the clip broke into 4 pieces. First squeeze. Upon close examination, it is made from the ultra brittle plastic you see on the cheap import cell phone cases. The ones in Wal-Mart for pennies on the dollar?

Hard to believe Belkin would make such a nice holster and then supply the cheapest clip they could find. A total failure. By the way, I dug out an old Nokia clip I had that had been in use for 2+ years every day until I retired the phone. The clip is very loose with this Belkin as the knob on the case is smaller than that on most cell phone case.

Big drag.

This is a good product that takes care of what it is designed for. I see no flaws in it at all.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fits 4G as well..., October 7, 2004

By	NC mom of 3 (Hillsborough, NC USA) - See all my reviews

I bought this product because I was looking for a quick and easy dash mount for my 4G ipod. It is working great so far. It fits the 4G perfectly, and the adhesive on the dash mount is SUPER strong. I was worried it wouldn't be sticky enough to keep up with all the manhandling a dash-mounted ipod receives, but it seems like it is up to the task. I don't use the belt clip, so I can't comment on the relative crappiness of the clip as mentioned in the other review. For my purposes this has been an excellent and affordable solution to my problem.
