A Lajo skin would be the way to go, as it's cheap, but of high quality.

Any of those are great, but I'd recommend the exo2fb photo.

Here are the specs for the different styles

yeah, I got a Lajo exoflp for my 40gb photo iPod and I'm happy with it. I was worried at first as it's not specifically designed for the photo iPod (a tiny bit thicker than the 40gb 4g), but once I got it and tried it, it turn out that it works just fine (there's no unwanted opening left where the bottom flip cover closes). It's a tight fit but it's not really a problem since you don't need to ever take the iPod out of the skin you just have to flip the bottom of the case open and your dock connector is available for any connection (even with a dock, sounddock, etc).

If you don't plan on using the dock that comes with your photo iPod you can consider an iSkin evo2. The skin is better than that of the Lajo, the screen protector is significantly better, but it's also a tight fit which means that you'll have to forget about the dock and use the cable or you'll go insane.

I'll give it to ya, that the iSkin shades are better than Lajo ones, if only for the fact they don't have that little artifact from the molding process.

As far as the cases though, I don't know that the eVo2 is really better, as the eXo2fb's I bought, were immaculate. I also don't care for those ridges near the lower corners of the iSkins. They seem unnecessary, and break up the smooth lines of the case.

Price was a main factor for me, which was one of the reasons why I went with Lajo's, but more recently, I've started to feel that even if I wanted a standard skin, I would have gone with Lajo's even if the prices were the same. )

I hear the accessories are little crowds of Japanese people running away from them... ;)
