Get the invisable shield and a case thats what i have. The invisable sheild only stops scraches.

I got the invisible shield off their website - arrived in a few days. Its the dogs..!! I have a case aswell but dont bother with it as I'm not too pushed about scratching the back

i've been planning on getting the Marware sports grip for the last 2 months, i really should get it. It seems pretty good.

*EDIT* that shop is a steal, bought a "It's not easy being Green (corduroy)" sleeve for my macbook and a "BlueBone" sleeve for my iphone and including shipping from australia it comes to 40euros. i paid that much for one of them crumpler sleeves for my old laptop

Have ordered 2 sets of these off ebay last week...for me and a mate!!

Looks like it should be a great product - seen an add for it while over in the US... is it hard to put on the ipod?? had a look at the video online - could get a bit messy i reckon...

I was a bit worried myself about putting it on - its not that bad. I did have two tiny air bubbles afterwards (which in fairness you could only see when it was off), however after a week or so it seemed to have settled and was perfect after that

+1 for the Invisible Shield. Its not difficult to put on, especially on the Touch as there are no odd sections to deal with. Much easier on the Touch than it was for my old iPod or my Blackberry I must say.

Will any of those fit a Creative Zen Vision M?

Hey what shipping method did you use? I don't want to pay for shipping if the free option does not take 3 weeks like the site says.

Cheers - Mik

TheBazman

didnt pay any extra for shipping - I think it arrived in around a week or so

Im the total opposite!

I covered the back because the back of the iPods are notorious for nightmare scratches that never come off, which can happen within seconds of it coming out of the box. Whereas, if you check out all the youtube clips and the gadget sites you'll see that the front is virtually scratch proof (Im stating what they claim, not claiming this myself btw). I doubt you'll do much damage to the screen by everyday use, unless you try very hard.

My shield is on the back, I left the front clean for the nice Touch feel

No, came across it too late. I had already gotten an Agent 18 case which is very similar, but I think the switcheasy looks a little better.

Kid Nothing

yeah it came this morning, it's fairly solid but the screen protector was very hard to get on clean and without crap under it! Still it's a good case, not too heavy either for a sturdy plastic case

Kid Nothing

after putting on the screen protector there and there's moisture from my fingerprints on the thing and it's leaving marks, any advice on getting rid of it?

Hi lads got my Invisible shield and applied it to my ipod, it looks ok tricky to put it on but worth it. Just wondering can it be taken off if I ever get fed up with it or gets damage?? Cheers.

storka

Has anyone got a link for where I can get one of these invisible shields? Couldn't seem to find one!

Thanks!

DonFred

its Shieldzone.com and cost about 17e for back and front. Took about 1wk to be delivered which is free.
