shuffle case

After the release of the new Apple shuffle, which comes in hip new colors like periwinkle, turquoise, jade, product red and silver, most of us with 2nd Gen iPod shuffles wanted to trade in our old models for a freshly painted 3rd Gen color. After providing a solution for those with the 1st Gens, I decided to keep my eyes peeled for those of us with plain white 2nd Gen shuffles. Well I've found some pretty sleek color remix sleeves from Proporta which should do the trick. With a variety of colors to choose from, you can personalize and protect your shuffle in style—without having to fork out the cash for a new one! Priced around $9 each.

If you like keeping your gadgets protected and don't necessarily care about showing them off, here's a shuffle case from USB fever that is all of the above. This watch style case, which I spotted on technabob, comes in a soft rubber, making it very comfortable and light weight. Available in blue, black, green, frost white, pink and purple for $10. Definitely a cute case, although I think I'd get annoyed with a dangling earphone cord attached to my wrist. It also reminds me of an intravenous tube! Too basic for your liking? Did you happen to see the gold and diamond iPod shuffle? Now that is what I call bling.
