Conclusion:
There are several thousand combinations of wrapz, bandz, and screenz to choose from, and with the option to have custom screenz created the combinations are truly limitless. In the past many of the silicon covers I have used have gotten dirty quite easily. After a little over a week of using the ifrogz Silicone iPod Case, it still looks new! There is no lint or dust that has been attracted to it, and it otherwise looks great.
Previously I had used an iSkin brand iPod wrap that had a solid screen protector, not a piece of film, and I prefer this more robust method of protecting the screen. One other concern I have is that if the iPod was on the holster and got caught on something, it seems quite possible that the screw would rip right through the wrapz. I did not test the strength of this area, as I did not want to ruin such a nice case.
You can buy each of the three components separately from ifrogz (the sole source), and individual prices are:
» Wrapz: $21.00
» Bandz: $4.00
» Screenz: $6.00
If you buy all three pieces as a set, you can save a few bucks as the total price for the set comes to $29 (US) (around $35 with shipping). For this price, you can't afford not to protect your iPod with one of these.
Given the extreme customization choices and protection provided, I award the ifrogz Silicone iPod Case the rating of "Highly Recommended".
Pros:
» Thousands of combinations
» Protects your valuable iPod
» Keeps dust/dirt out of sensitive dock/charge port
» Affordable
Cons:
» Screen cover is not solid
» Removing of bandz to use the dock/charge port
» Headphone port with bandz doesn't allow good connection with all headphones
