 Not what we expected.....at all! July 17, 2008

I ordered this for my daughter for her birthday and we were anxiously awaiting it's arrival (I printed her out a gift announcement which showed the picture). It looked so cool and we just assumed (especially given the price) that it was a thin, gel-like cover that would protect her new Ipod Touch. To our surprise, it came in a small, flat, clear envelope and it was basically protective stickers that cover the Ipod; it's really that thin and flat - a sticker. We were really dissapointed, although I'm sure it probably looks pretty cool (for a sticker) once you put it on, but she really needs it as protection from everyday wear and tear. It may be okay for minor scratches to the unit but as an overall protective skin...most definitely not a good value for the price and I'm pretty sure we weren't the only ones surprised when we opened the box and found what amounts to a pretty sticker for your Ipod (and expensive). It would be nice if they sold nice looking silicone skins with designs like this. I'm really bummed and will be returning it today for a refund.
 Looks can be deceiving...but in a good way. April 26, 2008

Simple, easy? You bet, and I've never been one of those that can color in the lines, if you know what I mean... What I mean is that if you make a mistake, you can take it off and reposition very easily, so if the first try is a no go or second or more, no worries. Just make sure your hands are clean and especially the surfaces of you ipod. You don't want dirt or lint getting trapped underneath. Though not necessarily harmful, it won't lie smooth or stick as well. They also provide a plastic square, in which the screen sticker is placed behind it, to help with alignment, which I didn't use at all. How to use it is another thing and since they didn't give any suggestions or hints, I didn't bother. But, don't loose that because it's supposed to help remove the skin later on.
Directions are pretty straight forward and are visual than written. I'd start with the largest sections and work your way down to the button skins. Just make the front sections line up because you can get caught up in the big parts and forget to line up the buttons right so that the image is right. Again, repositioning is one of the benefits of this product. Everything gets covered except for the sides, top and bottom. When you remove the skins for each sections, there will be thin outlines of each, which you'll need to make sure doesn't get put onto the ipod. Otherwise there will be overlap and it'll look wrong. And yes--I did that on the buttons accidentally and realized the overlap and it looked wrong.
Overall...easy, simple. The only small issue is the click wheel, which isn't as touch sensitive, but with a little finesse and finding those sweet spot, it works fine. And I can't stop looking at it, nor can other people. It's quite original and individualistic. The image is top quality reproduction and the feel of it is nice too. Not only that, the skin looks like it was printed on the ipod rather than a gel skin on it. While it won't protect you ipod if you drop it, like a case would do, it will protect the front, back and screen from most major scratches. The skins aren't flimsy or weak, so they've got some give and stretch. If you're rough with things, this product is not for you. But for me...perfect.
