Pros: Based upon the company’s earlier original, largely protective rubber and hard plastic case design, this Special Edition includes a pop-out video-ready mounting stand and integrated, non-detachable belt clip. Unique two-layer design provides good balance of access to and protection for iPod’s ports; rubber skin and hard plastic case are black colored, like Apple’s U2 iPod, with a built-in red rubber Click Wheel protector.

Cons: Price is even higher than already pricey original version of case. Headphone port is incompatible with oversized headphone plugs; exterior plastic is slightly scratchable.

I give this a B+
