I'm so glad you got old iPod working again! I got an impact resistant cover for mine when my old one died after what I *thought* was a small bump (it was in my bag that I ran into the car next to me while getting out of my car in a parking lot). I love the cover on this--I've dropped my iPod on the treadmill and watched it roll back and fly off the end and across the gym (o.k., only a few feet), bouncing before coming to a landing and I pick it up and it still works. It may not look cool and sleek with the cover on, but I don't care.
