Introduction
Growing fed up with having to take my ipod out of the felt case to charge it or switch between tracks, I broke down and got the Belkin Clear Acrylic case.
Good Points
If you're the type of person that loves your ipod color and design, the clear acrylic case accents rather than dominates the ipod design. The top part of the case flips off and doubles as a stand so that your iPod sits upright while you're charging or just playing music. An added plus is that it's also one size fits all. I bought it for my 30-gig ipod, but it also fits 60- and 80-gig ipods.
Bad Points
There's really no cushioning. I doubt that if you drop your ipod, the case would be able to offer as much protection as it should. With the case being acrylic, it would do little to absorb any major impact from knocking against hard objects while traveling in your pockets.
The Verdict
The verdict? I would give it a 2 out of 5. If protection is what you want, save your money and get a silicone case. While the case doubles as a cool desk stand, that's really the only thrill about the case.
