The iPod Nano: Now With Auto-Personalizing Feature!
Electronics | Sep 29, 05
Apple's admission of breaking screens in what they claim are a small number of Nanos comes amid widespread reports that those screens are also highly susceptible to scratches. Cupertino says the former problem is covered under warranty but the later is not, and suggests those concerned about random etchings invest in a protective case.
Sure, because when you give up extra storage for the convenient slimness of the Nano, what you're looking to do is add some bulk with a nice, padded shell. Or maybe we should stop whining about that engraving on the screen and look at it as a kind of automatic personalization feature – after all, you haven't really "made it your own" until the display is obscured by your unique pattern of specks and gouges.
But if you're not enough of an iconoclast to express yourself in this way, and if you're so closed-minded as to insist that a product marketed for its small size not have to be lugged about in a foam and leather sarcophagus, here's one constructive suggestion: the Apple iPod Nano Armband. Makes jogging with the little guy easier and keeps it away from those keys and change in your pocket. Just don't bump into anything sharp.

Got my kids the Ipod Mini, My nephews the Ipod Shuffle and my other Nephew the Ipod Nano. Almost have the entire family *smiles*
On a different note, does anyone know where I can find a Champagne Bling Cell Case by Kathy Van Zeeland?
