Help me find this iPod case... →[More:]So I lost my 5th gen iPod yesterday. I've resigned myself to getting a new one. But the real tragedy is that I lost my beloved 3rd gen iPod case.

Here's a pic.

I could buy the exact same case from Amazon, but I don't think it'll fit the thinner 6th gen iPod classic. And I haven't been able to find anything as simple for the new iPods.

I don't care much about color, but it needs to be very simple and preferably have a belt clip. No lids, snaps, buckles or plastic windows. Just a simple sleeve and clip. My old case was nylon. I'm okay with leather, but no hard plastic or silicon.

I'm sick of googling and clicking thru websites.

Any one have ideas?

That's the same model number as the 3rd gen case, so I think it'll be too big for the new iPod.

I think the XtremeMac Verona Holster might be what you want. It gets a crap review here, but that's because the editors there don't like cases that don't show the controls. As they say, "it is, quite simply, a leather version of the old nylon Apple case". Here's the manufacturer's site. It's $29.95.

That's perfect, chrismear! That reviewer is a dummy.

Thanks!
