Marware debuts multiple iPod video cases

Marware today introduced its new line of cases for fifth-generation iPods, designed to preserve the slim profile of the device while providing maximum protection. Most cases are expected to be available by the middle of December. The Sportsuit Convertible ($35, shown at right)--available in black, blue, and silver--has been completely redesigned for the iPod video, constructed from orca-skin neoprene. Features include a side-opening lid, hand strap, a built-in headphone cord winder, translucent silicone clickwheel protection, static film to protect the display, and a redesigned armband that uses the "Multidapt clip system."

Marware's Sportsuit Sleeve ($20)--available in black--offers an orca-skin pocket that stores headphones, as well as a removable belt clip.

The Sportsuit Basic ($20)--available in black--provides all-around coverage without adding bulk to the iPod, and includes a removable belt clip.



Sport Grip Backwinder ($20)--available in black, blue, white, pink, and green--features a built-in headphone cord winder to adjust and store headphones, translucent silicone providing clickwheel protection, and static film to protect the display.



Marware's Sidewinder ($30)--available in black and white--offers a slide-and-hide arm, that stows away while cords are in use and slides out for cord storage. A retractable kickstand supports the case on desktops for easy video viewing.



The CEO Classic ($35)--available in black--is constructed from full-grain leather with two removable lids, providing two modes of usage: a storage pocket for headphones, or a view of the screen incorporating click–through control access to the clickwheel. The CEO Classic ships with a removable belt clip.



Sportsuit Santa ($35)--available in black--can be worn with the included lanyard, carabineer, or looped through a belt as a festive case during the holidays.

Marware also unveiled the TrailVue case--designed for rugged and stylish iPod protection--as well as the Leather Folio--a silm, full-grain leather case--with pricing to be announced at a later date.
