I do believe that my iPod came with an phone case. I don’t really remember that well or care since I never used it. Knowing me I most likely just discarded it when I threw the box away . I do really like my iPod though. I never have to buy an entire album again. There is no point to buying CD’s when I could just download them off line . I just listen to the same handful of songs over and over. I usually only like one or two songs from an artist so this works out really well so I don’t have to buy the entire album. They don’t make singles for all the songs I like so the iPod just lets me buy whatever songs I want and not waste any money on ones I don’t. The songs are only a dollar a piece so it isn’t like I will be spending a ton of money on a bunch of albums just for one song . My problem is the armband I’m supposed to attach to when I’m working out never does its job. The iPod is always falling off it once I’m running a mile on the treadmill. It’s sturdy and it’s in a holder so when it hits the ground there’s never any damage, but you never know, especially when you’re working out. I will have to take extra precautions in the .
