Pelican Products 1010/i MicroCase
Let me start by saying that these cases are AMAZING! They are shockproof, waterproof, and dustproof cases designed to hold your expensive equipment. These cases are rock solid, Pelican even claims that if you can break their product, they'll give you a new one, free of charge! With that kind of guarantee, these things must be indestructible! I purchased the 1o1oi about a year ago at the Apple store for about 40 dollars (price has gone down). This case has a molded insert that is custom the most iPods (fits 5g video perfect) It also has an external stereo jack so you can listen to your music outside of the case. However it's not intended for submersion of swimming.
The second case (yellow) is a plain Pelican 1010 micro case. I use this to store my Sony DSC-N1 camera. It was purchased at Mountain Equipment Co-op for $12.50. Instead of a headphone jack, this case has the patented purge valve that makes it possible to open the case at high altitudes by allowing air to transfer freely, but not water.
I chose these cases for my two most used electronics while traveling. They will make great companions while in China because I won't have to worry about damaging them if I drop my bag. They'll be safe in there!
Overall, I would recommend the cases to anyone wanting to protect their investments while traveling. They are a bit bulky, but you can't beat the durability.
I am planning on purchasing the larger sized 1120 case for my camcorder, as it comes with customizable foam inserts!
