Monday, October 27th, 2008 at 5:00 AM - by Bob LeVitus
iFrogz new Treadz and Silicone Wrapz cases for the iPod nano 4G are attractive, well-made, and reasonably priced.
The Treadz case, available only in black, offers a simulated tire tread design embossed in heavy duty polished silicone case as shown here:

Both iFrogz cases are fabricated from polished silicone treated with a proprietary anti-dust technology to repel dust and lint. Unlike many soft silicone cases, these cases actually do repel dust and lint, and do it quite effectively.
Both cases are bargain-priced at just $9.99 apiece. Or, order them with optional wheel art (a.k.a. Screenz) for just three bucks more ($12.99). Here's a sample of just some of the available Screenz designs:

The Bottom Line
The iFrogz Treadz and Silicone Wrapz cases for the iPod nano 4G are excellent, offering good protection and cool looks at a very reasonable price. I couldn't find a single thing not to like. If you have a 4th generation iPod nano and are looking for a case, you should definitely consider one of these.
Just The Facts
Pros:Inexpensive, well-made, resists dust and lint, good looking.
Cons:None
