I have used many well-made tech-toy cases from around the world over the years. The Corsa for the iPod Touch and Sonata for the Nano are the first cases by Orbino I have ever tried. If first impressions are as important in cases as it in the real world, Orbino leaves most others behind.

This is the second Nano sports armband review I’ve done. The first review was on the Nike Sport Armband which has done an excellent job holding my Nano during my running. That being said, my initial impression of the Speck Active-Sport armband for the first generation Nano was that it was too big and bulky. But after using it several weeks it has grown on me enough to replace my Nike armband. An added bonus of the Speck armband is that it includes a sensor pouch to hold the Nike+ sensor.

Along with being an avid tech-guy, I’m a diehard runner. Over the years I’ve found the right shoes, clothes, music player, and accessories are important for an enjoyable run. My current mp3 player is the iPod Nano that I used in conjunction with an old Nike armband that was held in-place with velcro. It was an adequate set up, until the velcro began to regularly let go and I had to catch my Nano before it went shooting off the back of the running machine (something I’m sure isn’t covered … [visit site to read more]

Vaja iVod cases have always been very popular. The problem is that they are expensive and not everyone that would like to buy one, can actually afford one.

Whether it’s for a PDA, or a MP3 player, Vaja knows how to protect gadgets with a combination of both style substance and style. The substance part is taken care of beautifully with high quality leather, stitching and findings. When it comes to style, Vaja set the bar a long time ago. No one makes a better form fitting and great looking leather case. It’s a common practice for me to buy a new gadget and then anxiously wait for the day that Vaja … [visit site to read more]

Trying to decide on a perfect case for your Apple iPod nano can be very hard to do, considering all of the currently available choices on the market. There are metal cases, plastic cases, silicon cases, and of course, leather cases. I tend to prefer the leather ones. I don’t know if it’s the feel, or the smell, but leather just has a comfort to it, that other materials do not. This is why I wasn’t opposed to taking a look at … [visit site to read more]

I love my Apple iPod nano because it’s teeny tiny and sexy. Problem is, it scratches if you even look at it cross eyed. Mine developed light scratches all over the face within the first day of light use. ( Since Apple failed to include a case of any kind with the player, I resorted to keeping it in an old Vaja leather pouch (they used to ship their PDA cases in little drawstring pouches years ago), then I moved up to the … [visit site to read more]

If you have purchased an Apple iPod nano, you know that it is almost impossible to avoid scratching this digital audio player. I speak from experience, as after having mine for only one day, the clear plastic layer covering the display had scuffs and the chrome back plate had thin scratches all over it. Being an iPod owner for several years now, I wasn’t surprised to see these scratches, but I was very surprised at how … [visit site to read more]
