Retro iPod Shuffle Case Proclaims Old School Fandom
Posted by Mark Wilson at 11:10 PM on October 7, 2008
What better way to celebrate your new iPod shuffle than sticking it to Apple's marketing/branding department and sliding the sleek device into the original Apple logo? Available from an Etsy seller, the $US12 classic case features a rear opening that allows the shuffle's clip to slip through so you can wear it like a broach or button. But if giant lizards are more your thing and you've got a new iPod nano, the seller has something else you may be interested in:
Podzilla is a little more pricey at $US17, but he'll make an excellent guard dog for your nano. Just look at the guy. He's ferocious. [Etsy via Apartment Therapy]

Not so much a fashion statement as a fashion scream.
Still, I do like the Podzilla. The source site has many more sizes/patterns as well, fun stuff (and for something obviously hand made, cheap!)

And they'll keep your iPod warm too!
(If they have one that looks like a flying car, I'm there!)

My girlfriend's roommate found an old box with Apple stickers from the early 90s. She now has a classic rainbow Apple sticker on the white logo on the lid of her black Macbook. It's amazingly cute.

As much as I dislike Apple and anything with a lowercase "i" in front of it now, I will admit this was not always the case. I recall as a kid loving Apple stuff (original Mac, Apple IIE) and sticking those logos on everything. Once they made the iMac, I lost the faith.
