I no longer have one of these cases to test, but don’t think the 2nd generation nano would fit in this case. I would wait for Innopocket to come out with an updated case to reflect the shape of the new nano.

Would my iPod fit in the case, and if so would the case protect it as well as the first generation iPod nano’s?

I’m assuming you bought the case for the nano right? The Video iPod case has the plastic clip. The nano has the spring clip.

No I bought the Video one, guess I should have looked at the review a little closer.
Doesn’t matter anyway, the clip is history, the stud on the back has rubbed a groove in one side and the slot on the stud, has chewed most of one small
lock

I’m working on a Steel spring type like the nano

You can flex it somewhat when it is empty. But you’re going to have to really put some pressure on the iPod to damage it while it is in this case. For one thing, there isn’t any empty space between the case and the iPod. So there isn’t much room to flex in the first place.

I’m just trying to be certain that when I buy an iPod it won’t get destroyed like my last MP3 player was (poor little Rio Carbon ). The Matias armour is the only case like this I can buy locally, but it’s overpriced and would be inconvenient to use. Therfore I have to be fairly certain before buying one of these puppies online.

First of all i bought the case and recieved it last week.
I was disappointed to find that it came with a cheap plastic
belt clip, that is so loose, i had my doubts about as soon as I
first popped it on the metal post on the case

And I was right, the metal button that is screwed on the back has
actually started to wear out the plastic
After repeated insertions in and out of the clip, it gets looser and looser
I was surprised, because I thought it would have come with the spring steel clip shown in the review.

On a scale of 1 thru 10 it would have been a 10 except for the clip.
Nice snug fit on the Ipod though

If it covered everything thing, you’d have to use a pry bar to remove the iPod

The screen cover is a clear hard plastic non-removable window.

One of the listed “pros” of this device is the iPod screen is protected. But the screen protection is not mentioned in the review itself. Is it rubber. removable and sits against the screen? Or the firm plastic type.

Thanks.
