REVIEW of Clips 4 protective case for iPod Shuffle

I've been carrying my iPod shuffle around in a Clips 4 cover for over a week, and I'm glad I did.
Overview
The Clips 4 Shuffle Clip snaps onto your shuffle, leaving the headphone jack and the click wheel exposed. It has a clip on the rear that slips over a pocket or belt, and comes in four colors: black, pink, green and clear.
Observations
- The Shuffle Clip stays on. You have to really mean it if you want to take it off-- I don't think one of these will ever abandon your Shuffle.
- The Shuffle Clip scratches easily, but every scratch you can find on the outside of the case is one less scratch on your iPod Shuffle.
- It's easy to use the click wheel controls on the iPod Shuffle when it is inside the Shuffle Clip.
- As light as the case obviously is, it still seems to increase the total weight of the iPod Shuffle when installed. I guess that since the Shuffle itself weighs next to nothing, any weight would be detectable.
- You cannot charge or synchronize the Shuffle with the Clip on, and neither can you move the mode switch on the back. This has not been a big deal, since the Shuffle will turn itself off if paused for more than a minute, and it holds a charge for several days.
- They're a bit high on price at $12.95-- I would have expected to get a variety pack of three for around $20.
