5.0 out of 5 stars More than just waterproof., December 29, 2006

By	malcolmsdcali (San Diego Cali) - See all my reviews

So you just dropped $400 on the best MP3 player out there. (O.K. mp4 i tunes sharing but not really.) First step protect your investment in great entertainment.

I use this case at work on a construction sight, on the trails kayaking and hanging out at the beach. Except for one time on my kayak it has never been wet. I did test it in the sink with cotton balls at about 12" under water for 2-3 hours and no leaks. But what really makes this case rock is:

No scratches

No dirty hands, finger prints, liquids, dust, sand, mud or rain will ever touch you i pod!!!

You can drop it waist height without damage ( don't know about on concrete )

Has the best belt clip easy on/off but stays on

You operate the wheel from OUTSIDE very easily even with gloves!

The only improvement would be if you could sink and charge without removing it from the case but other than that this will ensure you expensive toy is protected well worth $50

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely Incredible--exactly what I have been searching for!!!, June 28, 2005

By	S. Kohler (Mich.) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

If you are ready for a fantastic swimming/water experience this is the product for you! It is perfectly designed to fit the ipod mini. I tested it first with cotton balls to be sure it was really waterproof before I trusted it with my ipod. I am now able to swim while listening to my favorite music and/or my talking books. Truly an enjoyable experience! You cannot imagine how great it is until you try it. I did alot of research before purchasing this product, searched the internet, read reviews. The Otterbox is an excellent product, works extremely well, and is reasonably priced.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best case I've ever used, November 6, 2006

By	John Ward - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I love this case. It keeps my iPod well-protected from scratches, water, and potential shocks of normal usage.
There are a few potential drawbacks for some people but they have not bothered me. First, the case is much bulkier than any other iPod case I have used. Personally,I would much rather this than to have to worry about walking around with my iPod in the rain. Also, the iPod dock connector is not accessible with the case closed. Since I only use this feature at my computer and for my FM transmitter I don't mind having to open the case to be able to access this. I do worry a little about wearing down the hinge by opening and closing it at least twice a day but given the sturdy construction of this case I don't think that is an immediate concern.
If I do have to replace my case in the future I would choose this case again, without hesitation.
