Vaja I-Volution i-Vod3G Case for Apple iPod
Introduction:
Vaja Cases, based in Argentina have been producing innovative leather
cases for a whole host of electronic gadgets including PDA's, mobile phones and
MP3 players for several years now and have built themselves up an excellent reputation
within the PDA community.
Cases are available for hundreds of products
produced by many popular manufacturers such as Nokia, Ericsson, Motorola, Palm,
Dell and Samsung...
Today I will be taking a look at one of Vaja's newest cases that has been
specially designed for the third generation of Apple iPod's - named the I-Volution
i-Vod3G. The i-Vod3G is a semi-rigid leather case that offers protection to
your expensive investment, protecting it from all sorts of potential damage with
oodles of style...
Why to choose a Vaja leather case?
- Leather is incredibly strong
- When maintained, leather has an incredible life expectancy
- Leather is naturally burn resistant
- Leather is non-allergenic
- There is no other material to match the feel and aroma of good leather
- Flexibility: Leather stretches to conform to individual contours, yet retains
sufficient shape to provide support
- Durability: Leather "breathes" allowing air in and moisture out. A natural
insulator, leather protects against extremes in temperatures
- Beauty: By its very nature, leather comes in a wide range of pleasing textures
and surface patterns
Packaging:
The case comes in a black box
branded on the sides with the Vaja logo, the underside features a short paragraph
telling of Vaja's attention to detail:
"This case has been designed
by a group of PDA enthusiasts, and made by skilled craftsman following
the highest quality standards of the leather industry, taking care of every
detail in each of its
almost fifty processes, only the top ten percent of Argentine leathers is
selected for its quality,
tact and durability, to be able to offer comfort and
service during its natural lifetime utility."
Upon removing the lid you are
greeted with that un-mistakable smell of leather. Inside the box you can find
the case neatly wrapped in some tissue paper and the optional belt clip.
Personally I think that presentation and packaging is very important. Vaja have
taken that extra step to present their product with care. As the case
arrives wrapped in tissue paper, this protects the case against knocks and
other damage that may occur during shipping.
The i-Vod3G Case:
Measuring approximately 4-3/8" long, 2-5/8" wide and 7/8" inches high, the
i-Vod3G provides a snug fit for the Apple iPod (for 10GB & 15GB models, a
slightly larger version is available for the 30GB model).
Vaja I-Volution i-Vod3G Case for Apple iPod
The case is mainly constructed of two quality pieces of cow-leather, with the top part featuring a piece of clear plastic that protects the LCD screen and some of the casing of the iPod from scratches and other damage.
The layers...
There are actually four layers
that make up the case structure... tafetta fabric
on the inside to protect the sides of the iPod, followed by
foam rubber to cushion the iPod and
ABS plastic to give the case rigidness. The fourth
layer is the leather finish on the outside.
