ToughShell for iPod
today announced a new "hard" case for the iPod: The ToughShell is a new protective case that is built with lightweight transparent shock resistant material for all round protection and durability. It supports Apple's click wheel 20GB iPod, 30GB iPod photo and 20GB iPod with color display. Contour says it used market research and feedback from existing customers to deliver a case that would be superior to "skin" cases, but still maintain a low profile and light weight. The ToughShell fits snugly and provides improved protection using enhanced transparent polypropylene. It secures the iPod by using an advanced snap-latch mechanism, offers access to all iPod controls, including the headphone jack, and hold switch as well as is compatible with many third-party attachments such as FM transmitters, voice recorders, etc. It includes a strong, detachable, stylish belt clip and will be available the first week of November for $22.
