His hit this rough advantages and disadvantages. On the one hand, it prevents the iPod from sliding on a smooth surface on the other, it makes it a little difficult to get out of a pocket.
Like almost all covers, the IceSuit has found an opening leaving the dock connector, thus preventing you remove your cover to connect the iPod to the computer. This manipulation is inevitable if you intend to use the Dock. At the top of the iPod cons, they are not arranged openings for connections and the Hold switch, there is no protection at all.
The screen and clickwheel are not protected. It's embarrassing for the main screen, which is much more sensitive to scratches than the wheel. Protection as the iSkin, or PVC surface would have been appropriate, it is a shame.
On the top of the iPod which is not covered by IceSuit is regrettable, but it also allows the connection of accessories like the iTalk, iTrip, Voice Recorder, or the PodWave ( Macally also). So we can not totally blame this on opening up, what is more, it makes the integration of the iPod in the IceSuit easier with an iSkin for example, with which it must pass by the ipod hole of the wheel or the screen ...
Note the lack of belt clip or other attachment, forcing the iPod and put his bag in a garment bag or purse.
