best iPod Touch Protectors

We all know if we have something expensive, we want to protect it from any harm right? For example: scratches and dents. Yeah you can find almost any kind of cover for any phone or music device. But then you have to think will it really protect my device? Best Screen Protection: ZAGG invisibleSHIELD
The new iPod Touch 2G has one issue that will irk the OCD Type-A personality in all of us - an easily scratchable smooth reflective body. As a matter of fact, there are some protective cases out there that will actually scratch the reflective body of the Touch 2G! This is where the ZAGG invisibleSHIELD system comes in. Advertised as a military grade, scratch-proof skin that covers the entire surface of the iPod Touch, invisibleSHIELD is our choice for screen & body protection for the iTouch 2G. Installation of this skin requires some patience but is fairly simple.

A few things we learned while installing our invisibleSHIELD: always keep your fingers wet with the included spray, use a hair dryer on cool setting to dry corner pieces more quickly, and remember that "perfect is the enemy of good." You will want to set aside 15 minutes to install properly, and don't rush. You can always keep wetting the shields and your fingers with the included spray until your shield is lined up correctly. If you have bubbles under your shield that won't squeegee out, simple lift the shield with wetted fingers and start again.

Best Protective Case: Speck PixelSkin
Now that your iPod Touch is properly shielded head-to-toe from scratches, you will want something to provide some extra cushion protection. This is where we chose the Speck PixelSkin for iPod touch 2G. Speck has a long history of making oversized rubber cases with extra cushion protection and we feel they really hit the mark with their PixelSkin line. Prior Speck cases we've used with the iPod Nano and Zune 30GB were hard to install and remove, however their new PixelSkin line is super simple to install and remove and adds just the right amount of bumper without adding significant bulk or weight. (They also come in other colors than black, like blue and red and "clear" - if clear's a color.)
