  Gucci iPod

  

  If you own Gucci socks, shoes, underwear, pants, shirts, hats, and a custom Ferrari with Gucci interior (as seen on MTV Cribs), then you must complete your Gucci wardrobe with this styling Gucci iPod case. It only costs $195… I’ll take two! Riiiiiight… I’d wait for the Swapmeet Gucci.

  Silicone Enhanced iPod Mini

  
  Personally, I think iSkin Inc. has the best iPod cases around. They are made from durable form-fitting silicone and provide protection against damages and scratches, and we know how badly those pretty little pods get scratched. You’ll have a hard time picking one out since they come in many colors and glow-in-the-dark variations. Some of the selling points, incase you need them… Rear pores to promote heat dissipation, Easy access to iPod’s Controls and Hold Switch, Side “goose bumps” for increased anti-slip grip, Compatible with iPod accessories that connect to the top of the iPod such as iTrip, Integrated dock connector port cover… need I say more? You’ll have to pony up 25 bones for these skins.

  Trendy Geek’s Pod Shields

  

  I try my best to keep my electronics looking new, but the iPod is the worst at keeping scratch free because of its shiny back and polished plastics. The problem with traditional iPod protective cases is that they take away from the slim look and feel of the iPod (a reason why most purchase one in the first place) so it you want to keep your iPod scratch free, then you’ll love Trendy Geek’s Pod Shields. They are a made of a thin material that clings to the iPod using high static. The front film covers the iPods’ delicate screen and the back film is designed to fully cover the stainless steel back and sides of the unit while still enabling users to place their iPod comfortably in a docking station. When the shields need replacing, there is no sticky glue or residue to remove — they simply peal off. They come in a 3-pack and cost about $6.99. Way easier and cheaper than buying a polishing kit.

  Armor For Your Laptop

  

  If the Panasonic Toughbook CF-29 is not your style, but need protection for your civilian laptop, then maybe you should get a Laptop Armor padded hard case. It’s been drop tested off a 2nd floor ledge onto concrete (about 10 feet) and both the laptop and Armor survived (video of droppage is on their website). Comes in 4 sizes and 3 colors. The price isn’t bad, between $100 – $200 depending on the size… heck, it’s cheaper than the Panasonic and it will make you look like some kind of special agent… handcuffs optional.
