Rio Carbon Cases
The Apple iPod is the undisputed king of audio player accessories with hundreds of third-party products available, but Vaja give Rio some love with their snappy leather Rio Carbon case.
The case that comes with the Carbon covers the display, but the Vaja case lets you see the display and access all the controls. Available in blue and brown, they are kind of spendy at around $55, but you can even get them embossed with a message. Kind of like engraving your iPod, but in leather. [Via Gear Live]

Posted by: olrac at February 12, 2005 06:22 AMThere's a decent $20 case from http://www.mindknob.com/ for the rio carbon. You can get a belt clip and car mounting clip for it, and the cover comes in black or "shark skin".

It is a Body Glove MP3 Armband and the Ebay Item number: 5866391527. Hurry though cos they are selling fast.
