iSkin Silicon Case w/ Scratch Resistant Visor for classic 30 GB iPod (Clear)

This skin fits my new 30gb ipod like a glove. I hadn't even taken the plastic off of my ipod and it fit perfectly into the skin (I was looking for maximum protection). I like the fact there is a harder plastic protector covering the screen. I especially like the fact that the belt clip, which I find to be tacky and a tad cumbersome, can be taken off completely if desired.

The only reason I didn't give this item 5 stars was because it requires a very slight modicum of effort to utilize the trackwheel when scrolling as opposed to not having any silicone covering it at all; however I find it's well worth it - you save your ipod from all the inclement wear & tear from normal use.

Offers great protection for my latest gen 30g iPod. It has a few minor downsides hence the 4 stars.

First the skin is really thick, not sure if that's necessary or a overkill, but it makes the iPod looks alot bulkier.
Second it's a lint magnet when put in your pocket, I had a black iSkin before for my nano and it really shows, this clear/white one makes it somewhat less obvious.
Thirdly the skin around the edge of the screen is very thin and sometimes slips out from under the transparent plastic cover.
Finally the design for the lock switch cover is less than ideal (it's completely covered under the skin, you have to toggle it through the skin), mine is already ripped.

But overall all those are minor issues so I only took one star off.

This case does protect your iPod and cradles it in cushy silicone; the hard plastic front cover is a great guard to protect the face. However, it is difficult to get your iPod inside. The design is not user friendly. My problem is that when the case is on, my iPod will not fit in my dock, so I take if off to use the dock. When I go to the gym, I have to put the case back on and it takes a couple of minutes and even then it is not smooth and properly sealed. If you are going to leave your iPod inside the case at all times, you will love it!
