Had an "Incident" with my iPod - its Fubar!


Well not quite Fubar but the clickwheel is most definately a goner, the hard disk is OK as i've just backed up all me tracks but even the guy at my local Apple shop gave up.

I've gone and done it now, still i have to phone up another Apple place tomorrow who apparently, i have been told, will "probably give me a new one".

Anyone know a good case to protect that one - just in case i were to say drop it (not that i have done that with this one or anything you understand )

I had a peek at the iskin evo 2 but im not sure thats what i need.

Saying that im not to interested in proofing it against a Nuclear Attack either.

Any ideas?

Re: Had an "Incident" with my iPod - its Fubar!

Would that offer decent "drop" protection though?

Mine has fallen from waist height in that at least 1/2 dozen times., usually onto station platforms. In that case my biggest concern when that happens is whether the HDD is spinning.
