Advantages: Prevents scrapes Disadvantages: Not completly waterproof
One of these almost saved my life. Well not really. I had my brothers ipod with me and then I dropped it. He had one of these covers on it and when I dropped it it didn't even leave a mark on the screen. These sleeves are really good because they can stand a lot of different things.
When you put it on it almost makes your ipod look like a new device but it also allows you to have better safety in case you drop your ipod.
The only bad thing about this is that there is no screen protector and that it is not completely waterproof because the water can get into through the clickwheel and it ca also get in through the screen.

Advantages: Relaxing, entertaining, a fantastic hobby that can enrich your life Disadvantages: Takes a lot of time and possibly some money
Did anyone see the report on the news last week about the increase in people taking up musical instruments since the credit crunch began? I was surprised by this, but when I thought about it a bit more it did make perfect sense. Playing an instrument can be very relaxing, satisfying and a great antidote to the stresses and strains of modern life. The initial cost of buying an instrument can be considerable, but once you have it, there it is, just waiting for you to make your beautiful music. Beautiful to your own ears at least, even if to no-one else's!
