At www.iskin.com it says, "NOTE: Not compatible with the new fourth generation iPod"

Are the ones that Pepsi gives away 4th gen?

I'm getting a skin by SNIP called the exoflpfb 4g. It's got a covered scroll wheel and the bottom port is protected but easily accessible. I'm not sure on the colour yet.



I've already got an fm transmitter I bought for my iriver mp3 cd player:

right now I'm just looking for a good case.

I was looking into getting the transmitter, but I got the tape deck converter which will work for now, until I get a car that doesn't have a tape deck.

My only accessory is my girlfriend, who the iPod would go to. Cause I have an iRiver iHP-120, and it already comes with all that crap that an iPod owner would need to purchase seperately.

Indeed. If I won an iPod, I'd be looking to (quickly) sell it off for an iriver. My old imp-350 is on its last legs.

Which stores in Toronto sell the iSkin or any other good iPod skins?

I didn't really see many on the Future Shop, CompuSmart or BestBuy websites...

i have the itrip mini and i would say the signal strength depends on which station you chose. If the station has a lot of static and does't have other stations' background noise on it, i find it to be really clear. i can usually put it on my cup holder or passenger seat and get a very good signal.

when i find myself travelling from city to city, i have to constantly change the radio station to find a clear signal.

i think this is almost a must for ipod owners who drive. i also pump my ipod through a boombox at work and it works very nicely too.

i'm still looking for a good ipod mini carrying case. the vaja ones are good but really expensive too.

I have an iTrip for my 4Th G iPod and it works pretty good. You do get a little static but I find it depends on the car (It works better in my wife's car). All in all though it's great.

For a case I'd definately recommend the iSkin. I have the Ghost model on my iPod and love it. You can order online from www.iskin.com. They're in Toronto so when it's shipped it comes fast. Compusmart also carries them but last i checked they didn't have 4th G skins yet.

Enjoy your iPod. I love mine. Don't listen to the haters, they're just jealous!

I recently got an iPod mini and MiniSleevz case for it:

I quite like it so far.

I also got the iTrip mini, which I haven't had much chance to use yet.

Looking for a car holder... I hear Belkin is coming out with a cool new holder/car charger.
