Just got my ipod video 30GB today and i'd like to know what are the most essential things that i should buy first? (e.g. screen protector, casing etc.)

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I used the original plastic covering(the one with the "dont steal music" thingy) and the original stick-on plastic as screen protector, then terus masuk into silicon case. You cant see the display clearly, but since mine's a nano, i'd give it a miss wink.gif

erm..
so many things...

but 1st off.. something to protect ur precious ipod as they are so easy to be scratched..

next.. u shld move to getting a pair of good earphones... dunno abt the koss yet.. mine havent arrive.. but the comments are POSITIVE... biggrin.gif

after tht.. u can move to the various "toys" tht your ipod is compatible wit..
items like the chargers, docks n etc can come but after u hav settled the 2 1st items.. which i think is more important...
kekekek

enjoy ur ipod bro...
i listen to mine everyday.. biggrin.gif

Hi there,
You can buy those screen protectors for phones and cut them to suit your iPod. They are only around RM10.

Thanks!

don't think anybody would buy the ipodyourproton... as it'll still cost a bomb and most proton users won't foot the bill of such an expensive accessory...

Hahaha, that is quite true... But still, it would be cool to actually make your car a giant ipod player!

This is a pretty cool alternative if you don't have a car that can be iPodized.
