I made this one about a year ago. And it only cost me $1.50 and 10 minutes of my time.

Just remember: your iPod nano is NOT edible, nor would it take very kindly to being licked.

Yeah, it's a good idea, but how many of these are going to be picked up and thrown in the trash because it looks like an old tin of mints?

The Shuffle could be confused for a throat lozenge...it is small enough.

What about a disguise to make your iPod look like a Zune? That's a sure way to make sure nobody steals it.

I keep my Nintendo DS games in an Altoids Chewing Gum tin. It's the perfect size to hold 6 of the games.

Yep, I can get an altoids tin or similar sized tin, and some foam and make one for half of what they want for it. Sorry if I seem cheap or anything.
