The Inspiretech iPod Touch 2G case is definitely worth getting for those who want to protect their high-end iPod from scratches and minor impact damage. We tested out the shipping process by placing an order on monday and were able to receive the package by thursday of the same week. This time around we did not speak to customer service because we did not expect to recieve it so promptly.

With the iPod Touch such a popular sale over Christmas, there will inevitably be a lot of people out shopping for accessories. The typical accessories to have are cases and iPod Touch 2G car chargers.

The Inspiretech iPod Touch 2G Case was the first case we recieved for review and in keeping with their track record, the company has delivered another quality product. The cases come in 8 different colors ranging from the typical black and white to the outlandish pink and fushia.

The main body of the case is made of polycarbonate which means it is both impact and temperature resistant. Many users have commented that the chrome finish on iPods tend to scratch easily which is why there is such a high demand for protective cases. The Inspiretech iPod Touch 2G case does its job well and still manages to not become unsightly. Removing the case can be a little tricky but heres a tip; peel from the bottom left corner with your left thumb while you grip the ipod volume controls with your right thumb!

Priced at $9.99 it seriously undercuts the iPod case market by a significant margin. If you’re looking for a sleek and elegant protective case for your iPod Touch 2G, the Inspiretech iPod 2G case is a sure bet!

The iPod Touch 2nd Gen was a huge hit over Christmas 2008. Basically an iPhone without the phone, the iPod Touch is priced much more reasonably than the iPhone and is the perfect choice for those who are happy just talking on their phones and have no need to pay an exorbitant amount to AT&T for the data plan. The App store reported an influx of downloads over Christmas with most of those coming from iPod Touch users. Amazon has reported the iPod Touch as their number one selling MP3 player and many companies have already started to order more iPod Touch 2G accessories in preparation for the large demand following receipt of the iPod Touch 2G as Christmas presents.
