My Take on iPod Touch 8GB 2nd Generation.

The iPod comes in a small plastic box. Mounted on a plastic platform-layer-like thing, giving the box 2 layers. Underneath the iPod are the earphones, USB cable, cloth, Apple stickers and a handbook.

On the screen is a sticker with a mock homepage to protect the screen.

Side view of the iPod. (forgot to take a view of the other side where the volume controls are)

These are the accessories that came with the casing that I bought. A squigee, 2 screen protectors, cloth, universal dock adapter, video stand and a connector protector.

Back View. The first layer is latex (I think, not silicon, not sure), the top piece that looks like it's skeleton is hard plastic.


The brand is RebelTouch, retails at RM119 at Machines.

Personally I think it's an overprice piece of rubber and plastic. I wouldn't have bought if there were more choices to choose from. In fact I wouldn't have bought an iPod at all. To me it's nothing to shout about.

The silicon skin was going for RM106 and it doesn't come with a screen protector. Talk about an expensive piece of chemically processed sand!

Oh well, at least I didn't spend an arm and a leg for the iPod.

Wooh.... nice, How much did you spend on the IPod?

I decided some time ago not to walk the Apple path, as much as its nice and well designed, its over priced for what its offering. Plus not much of choices to upgrade if ever a need arises.

Then again, having an IPod can be really fun.....
