iSkin eVo 2
Ive got an carbon iSkin eVo 2 for my 20gb 4th gen!

pros:
Keeps your ipod scretch free, and protected!
comes with screen protector!
rubber is strong, wont rib easily!
doesnt slip on unlevel surfaces!
also itrip and headphones and remote still fit on top!!



cons:
dust and dirt magnet!!
cant put ipod in dock when this is on!
increases the thicknes and overall size of ipod quite considerably!


overall i think it is a good cover, but for for what it does you could probably get better for a little more money!!
Get you iSkin from here

anyone else got an iskin?? what do you think of it?

i bought a lajo xSkin eXo 3 (lajo and iSkin were like 1 company but they split) and it was ok cus it was thin but cus it was see thru it had ugly blotches wher it was touching the case, a opaque one would be better, i got it becase it was the thinnest case and the only one that covred the buttons too, i was thinking about getting a iSkin but i decided against it because i dont really want on that badly lol anyway, for the lajo eXo3

pros
thinnest case there is
cheap (only a tenner)
keeps iPod scratch free
doesnt slip on uneven surfaces
only case to protect the buttons

cons
no screen protector
can't dock
blotchy and ugly if semi transparent
hard as a ***** to get on w/o talc, slippy if you do use it (once its on tho, if you dont use talc it doesnt budge)

I got an iSkin eVo 2 a while ago. It is ebony (pure black) and cost AUD$50.
I think that it is very good, I have found no downsides to it besides the dust attacting.
Also, take off the clip! It will melt onto your iPod!

I borrowed an iPod from a friend to mod for him and he had the ebony iSkin. It was really dirty but other than that it looked good.

Mine doesn't get very dirty, and you could just wipe off the dust/lint with a soft cloth or wash it in soapy water as per the 'manual'.

It doesn't literally melt, I just found mine got pretty stuck to the back of my iPod and left a hard to get rid of mark.

It didn't happen to me, but my friend got it to melt to it in the slightest and it was hard to get off. It also leaves a mark and having the disk in the back could scratch your iPod when you put it in/take it out.
