Two new iPod 5G cases from Tunewear

The folks at Tunewear have been working overtime to ready 2 new cases for the latest member of the iPod family.

Today they announced the ICEWEAR 5G, a high-density, transparent silicon case which provides a better grip, scratch protection and shock protection, while still giving you access to all ports and controls. The ICEWEAR cases are some of my personal favorites in the "iPod condom" category.

They also announced the PRIE Ambassador, a versatile leather case that can be hooked or clipped to your belt or pocket with the included accessories, or hung around your neck using your favorite strap or lanyard (not included). Purists can strip the case of all the extras and just slip it into their pocket. The case features a snap-button front cover for full protection, and has a peek-a-boo clear, vinyl window on the back so that you can show off your engraving. It's available in black leather with with red or black stitching or white leather with white stitching.

Both cases are expected to ship next month. MSRP for the ICEWEAR case is $24.95 US, while the PRIE Ambassador has a suggested retail of $49.95 US.
